I got one of these calls. I knew it would not be for me. However thought it might have been intended for a family member who is on a Disability Support Pension. After several calls to this given number, I was finally advised it was a mistake and that everything was OK. I think they got fed up with me harassing them for further information. Makes a bit of a change having the tables turned on them.
My elderly patents received an automated phone call claiming to be from Centrelink saying they have not responded to letters they have sent about an increase in pension payments & that they need to call their head office in Canberra (my parents never received such letters). My mother called the above number & the woman wanted my parents'names, addresses, Centrelink numbers & amount of last Centrelink payment which she gave. The woman then said she needs to make an appt at a local Centrelink branch for them so that they can be given a cheque with their backdated pay. She put her on hold & never came back. I have reported this number to the ACCC & will also call Centrelink tomorrow to advise them.
Yesterday I arrived home to find a message on my answering machine. The caller advised me that Centrelink had been trying to contact me without success and that I have not completed an application for our part pension.
The message was quite disturbing in its presentation. I tried without success to call our Adviser and ultimately decided to call the above number to sort out the problem with our pensions.
I was told that, due to our lack of response to the mail our details had been sent to head office in Canberra. I was asked to provide our address in detail and the correct spelling of both of our names and the numbers on our pension cards. I was also asked to provide the amount of our last pension payment.
I provided all of this information and the whole time I was under the impression, from the challenging tone of the conversation, that I was at fault.
I was then informed that if the mailing of the application had failed for some reason I would be called when mail was dispatched to our address, and asked for the phone numbers. As I started to deliver the phone numbers I said .."I am not comfortable with this phone call, I am not comfortable with this phone call" at which point the caller hung up!
I now have a strong feeling that our identity has been compromised - HELP! What should we do to avoid any further action?
These guys rang my 88 year old mother and left a message on the phone advising her that she was missing out on a pension increase and to return call this number. I returned the call and they stated the call was not intended for me and hung up. I rang back and they hung up again after I asked them why they were calling my mum. Dodgy bastards!
I also got this call claiming to be centrelink. So I called the number and I questioned him about it. As soon as he knew that I knew he was a criminal he hung up the phone.
Yes we also got the computer generated voice call. Not exactly threatening but could easily fool an older recipient. Centrelink NEVER cold call clients and I only use a dedicated number for business calls never my home phone landline. Shameful Scam on vulnerable people!
I got a call from this number. It was a computer generated voice. It said that if you have a centrelink press 1 or if not press 2. I pressed 1, then it said that centrelink has been sending several letters in the mail about an increase to the pension I that I am entitled to, and since I haven't responded to them, it's now with canberra office. To get the backpay and have the issue sorted, I need to ring this number 02 8607 5080 during 10am to 6pm weekdays during canberra time.
The thing is I am not on a centrelink pension. And centrelink would never send a computer generated voice message because it has no idea who it is talking to and cannot verify the person or protect the person's privacy.
I did not ring the number, but I did this search on the number.
Obviously someone trying to get bank account details.

This is a SCAM. Centrelink has confirmed this. Don't fall for it. Likely attempt at identity theft.

Yes. I go a similar phone call 18/2/17 but with a real person. But did not try to get bank details. Maybe identity theft using other contact details.
