Explicit SMS and Impersonation Reports for 04 2146 1107

Five contributors have reported receiving unsolicited explicit SMS messages from 04 2146 1107 (also written as 0421461107), with one report specifically flagging impersonation tactics. The messages are sexually inappropriate and harassing in nature, with callers using false identities to deceive recipients into engagement.

One contributor received a text claiming to be from someone named Jenny with explicit sexual content, when the recipient's name was not Brad and had no prior contact with the sender. This type of misdirected explicit messaging, combined with a false identity claim, suggests either a deliberate impersonation scam or mass messaging operation targeting random numbers.

What Contributors Received from 04 2146 1107

The SMS messages from 0421461107 consistently contain sexually explicit content. Contributors describe the messages as obscene, harassing, and explicitly inappropriate. One report documents receiving multiple explicit messages over time, indicating the sender may have persisted after initial contact.

The impersonation element noted in one report shows the sender using a false name (Jenny) and incorrectly addressing the recipient (Brad) in an attempt to create false familiarity or romantic context. This tactic is designed to lower the recipient's guard and increase the likelihood of engagement or response.

Report Timeline and Pattern

Reports span from mid-2024 through late 2025, with the most recent submission in December 2025. All reports involve SMS as the contact channel, suggesting the sender relies solely on text messaging rather than phone calls. The continued reporting throughout 2025 indicates this number remains active in sending such messages.

The frequency pattern suggests either repeated offences by the same sender or a shared/compromised mobile number being used for these purposes. The Optus mobile allocation indicates this is a standard mobile service rather than an automated system.
