NAB Impersonation Scam Reports for 03 9322 6426
Two contributors have reported scam activity from 03 9322 6426 (also written as 0393226426) involving impersonation of NAB (National Australia Bank). The scam specifically targets recipients with false claims about Commonwealth Mastercard transactions and escalates to aggressive threats when questioned.
One contributor received a call from 0393226426 claiming to represent NAB regarding an unauthorised Commonwealth Mastercard transaction. When the recipient questioned the caller and stated they don't hold a Commonwealth Mastercard account, the caller became aggressive rather than verifying details or transferring to a legitimate department. Another contributor received a deceptive email appearing to originate from NAB but linked to 03 9322 6426, confirming this number is actively used in coordinated scam attempts across multiple channels.
What Callers from 03 9322 6426 Claim
The caller from 03 9322 6426 falsely claimed to be contacting about an unauthorised Commonwealth Mastercard transaction requiring immediate verification. When challenged, the caller became hostile rather than following standard bank security protocols.
Contributors report that when they attempted to verify the call by ringing back 03 9322 6426, they reached a voicemail claiming to be the NAB customer ID line. This is a known scam tactic - creating a false callback number that appears legitimate to deceive callers into thinking they've successfully reached their bank. The combination of impersonation, false transaction claims, and aggressive behaviour when questioned indicates a coordinated fraud operation targeting NAB customers and non-customers alike.
Report Patterns and Timing
Both reports about 0393226426 arrived within four days of each other in early December, suggesting an active campaign. One contributor encountered the scam via phone call (call answered channel), while another received the initial contact via email, indicating the scammers use multiple communication channels to reach targets. The aggressive escalation when questioned suggests the scammers are not equipped to handle legitimate security questions - a red flag that distinguishes this from genuine bank calls.

WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Is 03 9322 6426 a real NAB number?
No. NAB customer service calls typically come from recognisable NAB numbers, and NAB will never call asking for personal banking details. If 03 9322 6426 calls claiming to be NAB, it is a scam. Hang up and call NAB directly using the number on the back of your card to verify. Do not use any number the caller provides.
What should I do if I gave personal information to someone from 0393226426?
Contact NAB immediately using the official number on your card or statement to report the breach. Monitor your Commonwealth Mastercard and any other accounts for suspicious activity. Consider placing a fraud alert with credit reporting agencies and checking your credit report. Document what information you shared (account numbers, ID details, etc.) to report to Scamwatch and ACMA.
Why does the voicemail for 03 9322 6426 claim to be NAB?
Scammers set up voicemail messages claiming to be NAB customer service to appear legitimate when you call back. This is a social engineering tactic designed to make recipients trust the number. Legitimate banks do not operate this way. Always hang up and independently contact your bank using officially published contact details.
Can I get my money back if I fell for this scam from 0393226426?
Contact your bank immediately to report the fraud. NAB has fraud recovery processes and may be able to reverse unauthorised transactions if reported quickly enough. The sooner you report 03 9322 6426 and the scam, the better your chances of recovery. Also report to Scamwatch (scamwatch.gov.au) and ACMA (acma.gov.au) to help prevent others being targeted.
Should I block 03 9322 6426 on my phone?
Yes, block 0393226426 immediately to prevent repeated calls. However, scammers often use multiple numbers, so blocking this single number is only a partial solution. Report it to your phone provider and use your phone's spam-blocking features. Register on the Do Not Call Register at donotcall.gov.au and report the number to ACMA.
How did scammers get my contact details to call from 03 9322 6426?
Scammers source Australian contact lists from data breaches, purchased databases, or random calling campaigns. The fact that the caller from 03 9322 6426 didn't know your account details (and fabricated a Commonwealth Mastercard transaction) suggests they were using a broad contact list rather than targeting you specifically. This makes you a victim of a mass scam campaign, not a targeted individual.
