Scams like these

Did the prove id thing with the 2 mobile phone companies I have prepaid with.
Just have to show 2 points of id.
Not sure if this will indeed stop Aus scamming Aus, they just took id # of the id documents.
Didnt even scan photos, tho Optus said photos was needed if online verification, but going into a store, they just need the mobile ph # involved, and show id, and exp dates.
Need home address tho.
So far, Optus has chased me up on this, but went to Telstra too.
Other mobile phone companies might start this up, sooner or later.

🤔 interesting. Haven’t been contacted at all.
