Hi folks,

Just received a call which displayed as 0425 354 906, went straight to 
an automated female voice with Australian accet saying that my Amazon 
Prime subscription (which I don't have) for $99.99 will be auto renewed 
and press 1 to speak to an Accounts representative if I do not wish for 
this to happen.

I don't have an Amazon prime account and didn't press 1, although I was 
tempted to, just to hear how far they tried to go to obtain my bank or 
other personal details.

FYI in case any of your customer (or your family) may have a similar 
call. Enough people must still think these are legit or the scammers 
wouldn't keep trying.

I also got another "your package will arrive" SMS scam about an hour ago.

Cheers
Kai
