WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Why did I get a robocall from 02 7248 1262 about an Amazon purchase I didn't make?
Scammers use fake purchase notifications to create urgency and panic. The robocall from 0272481262 is designed to trick you into calling back, clicking a link, or providing payment details to 'confirm' or 'cancel' a fake order. Amazon never contacts customers via robocalls for purchase issues.
Should I call back 02 7248 1262 to cancel the order?
No. Do not call back 0272481262. Any call to this number will connect you with scammers who may attempt to extract personal or financial information. Instead, log directly into your Amazon account at amazon.com.au to verify your order history.
What happens if I press a number or click a link from a 02 7248 1262 robocall message?
Pressing a number or clicking a link from 0272481262 could route you to a scammer's phone line, install malware on your device, or direct you to a fake Amazon login page designed to steal credentials. Avoid engaging with the message entirely.
Is 02 7248 1262 a real Amazon number?
No. The number 0272481262 is a robocall number reported for scam activity, not an official Amazon contact. Amazon's official customer service numbers are listed on amazon.com.au. Never trust contact details from unsolicited calls.
How do I block 02 7248 1262 on my phone?
Most smartphones allow you to block numbers directly from voicemail or recent calls. After blocking 0272481262, consider reporting it to ACMA at acma.gov.au so the regulator can investigate and warn other Australians.
What should I do if I already clicked a link or provided information to 02 7248 1262?
If you clicked a link or shared details with 0272481262, change your Amazon password immediately, enable two-factor authentication on your account, monitor your bank and credit card statements for unauthorised activity, and report the scam to Scamwatch at scamwatch.gov.au.
