Do not engage with the message or click links from 0294593320, as this confirms your number is active and may result in more messages.
Is 02 9459 3320 a real Telstra number?
The number 02 9459 3320 is allocated to Telstra as a local NSW service number. However, the allocation doesn't verify legitimacy - scammers exploit legitimate number ranges to appear credible. The automated scam SMS report indicates this particular number 0294593320 is being used for spam distribution.
What should I do if I clicked a link in the SMS from 0294593320?
If you clicked a link from 02 9459 3320, monitor your accounts for suspicious activity, change passwords for sensitive services (email, banking, myGov), and consider running security software. Report the incident to Scamwatch at scamwatch.gov.au and your bank if financial accounts are involved. Block 0294593320 immediately.
Can I block robocall SMS messages from 02 9459 3320?

Should I reply to the SMS from 02 9459 3320 to unsubscribe?
No. Do not reply to robocall SMS from 0294593320. Replying confirms your number is active and monitored by real people, often increasing spam. Instead, delete the message, block the number, and report it to ACMA at 0429 999 888.
Why is 02 9459 3320 still active if it's sending scam SMS?
Scammers often use legitimate number ranges and can cycle through numbers or use spoofing techniques. While Telstra allocates 02 9459 3320, the actual scam SMS distribution may be routed from overseas. Report the number to ACMA (acma.gov.au) and Scamwatch so authorities can investigate and attempt to shut down the campaign sending automated messages from 0294593320.
