I had a call last week from a person saying they are from Telstra and my NBN is about to get disconnected if I don't pay an overdue bill. Except I am with Optus on their 5g broadband so not connected to the NBN at all.

My response to those calls normally goes something like this:

"Thank you so much for contacting me. I asked for that service to be disconnected months ago, so please just go ahead and disconnect it immediately. Thank you so much for helping get this sorted."

They say dont, but maybe you should have played along.

Apparently I updated my PayPal account details on Sunday night. An email with my name and looking very much like PayPal with correct context links in all the small text at the bottom appeared in my email. Basically just a notification that I’d updated something. I didn’t update anything and haven’t used PayPal since 2018…

Wouldn’t even know log in details to check anything and any credit card used previously would be long churned. Assumed spam; deleted; on, on.
