[LINK] Strange call from "Telstra"

[Jan Whitaker]

Has this ever happened to anyone? 
I had a call from someone with a South Asian accent telling me my Telstra internet connection is going to be turned off this week because of hackers. I told him Telstra isn't my ISP, but I stayed on the line. He says that Telstra supplies all internet connections across the country. So now do I understand?

I asked for his name and telephone number. He asks why and I say because I don't believe him about any of this. He says, ok if you don't believe me hang up. So I did.

That is one of the strangest calls I've ever had. Just wondering if anyone else has been hit like this? It's a doozy.
