Scam or real?

Huco from Remuera

I had a phone call today from number +61 285 203 880 from a lady who said that she represented a Health Organisation. She knew my first name. She continued to ask if my health was good. After that what my age was. I ask her why she needed so much personal information? She replied to help people … View moreI had a phone call today from number +61 285 203 880 from a lady who said that she represented a Health Organisation. She knew my first name. She continued to ask if my health was good. After that what my age was. I ask her why she needed so much personal information? She replied to help people like me. I stated I was not giving her personal information as I could here typing during our conversation. She ended the call.

I share this with you, because it is so easy to fall in a trap where personal information is used for all the wrong reasons.

Be aware, be alert, be wise. Have a great day.
