Impersonation Scam Reports for 03 9003 3591

Six contributors have reported calls from 03 9003 3591 (also written as 0390033591) involving impersonation tactics and suspicious behaviour. The dominant pattern centres on callers falsely claiming to represent Australian Securities and Telstra, combined with aggressive out-of-hours calling and requests for unauthorised computer access.

Three separate reports about 0390033591 specifically mention impersonation of legitimate Australian companies. When challenged about illegal calling times, one caller claimed to be offshore and therefore not bound by Australian business hour restrictions. Another call from 03 9003 3591 involved a request for computer access under the guise of IP security concerns.

What Callers from 03 9003 3591 Claim

Contributors report that callers from 03 9003 3591 identify themselves as representatives from Australian Securities. When questioned about calling at 10:30pm, the caller responded that they operate outside Australia and are not subject to Australian calling hour restrictions, dismissing the contributor's concerns about legal compliance.

One report describes a different tactic from 0390033591: the caller claimed to be from Telstra and stated the recipient's IP address was compromised and unsafe. The caller then requested computer access to allegedly fix the issue. This represents a classic tech support scam approach where legitimate company impersonation is used to justify access requests.

A third report from 03 9003 3591 describes a caller claiming to be from an investigation department, though the contributor noted the caller sounded suspicious and unconvincing. Another call resulted only in hangup behaviour when answered, while a voicemail left by 0390033591 contained only background noise, consistent with automated call centre operations.

Call Patterns and Timing

Multiple reports about 03 9003 3591 indicate calls arriving during unsociable hours. Two separate contributors received calls at 10:30pm, prompting explicit mention of standard Australian business hours (8am-5pm). This out-of-hours persistence is a recognised red flag in impersonation scams.

Contributors attempting to verify the legitimacy of 0390033591 by calling back encountered immediate disconnection, preventing any follow-up investigation. One report noted a thick accent on the caller, suggesting offshore operation. The combination of out-of-hours calling, offshore operation claims, and immediate disconnection on callback suggests coordinated scam activity rather than legitimate business.

What to Do If You Receive a Call from 03 9003 3591

If 03 9003 3591 calls you, treat it as a potential scam and do not engage with the caller's requests:

• Do not: Grant computer access, provide personal information, or continue the conversation if the caller requests sensitive details
• Do not: Trust the caller's identity claims. Legitimate companies do not request computer access via unsolicited calls

• Do: Block 03 9003 3591 in your phone settings to prevent future contact
• Do: Report the call to the ACMA (Australian Communications and Media Authority) if you receive repeated calls from 0390033591
