Within hours of the Bondi shootings, bombarded with "safety check" messages from this number.

How anyone can try to cash in on a situation like this just makes me question my faith in humanity.

Please delete and report (for what little it will do... sadly)

Hope they get what they deserve.:(

Frequently Asked Questions

Why would someone text me about a 'safety check' after the Bondi shootings?

Scammers exploit major news events and public concern to make messages seem legitimate and urgent. One contributor who received messages from 0429 336 755 (0429336755) reported texts designed to look like official safety alerts, but sent from a private mobile number.
