I got one of these from a mobile number - they get really pissy when you
tell them you need stuff in writing. Aside from reporting the SIP account
you should also report this to the ATO, they have a specific line for
reporting scammers. This kind of thing can lead to the callers being
prosecuted, so it's best to report anything like this if you get a call, or
if you get one reported to you as a provider.
