Possible new refund scammer targeting Australians

Scams Refund Scam
1

My wife got what looks like a refund scam SMS from a number I can’t find searching here.

>

You paid $1969.00 against Lenovo Intel core i9 Touch Laptop at AMZ. Order #[redacted] on 2021-04-10. Customer helpline +61-1800491580 if you have any dispute.

(I've redacted the order # for my wife's privacy in the unlikely case they're using it for tracking or analytics).

Message was send from 0423821047, but I have no idea if that was spoofed or not.

I called the 1800 number with CID disabled, and a live agent answered immediately with "Thankyou for calling Amazon Support".

@chovain#187031 hey there, the “order number” here is usually one number sent to everyone they’re texting, there’s no personal info attached to it… you can edit your post to add it if you’d like…

symbionetworks.com are the wholesale provider for +61-1800491580. Symbio Networks are knowingly providing these numbers to scammers. You can call Symbio networks on +61 1800682038 and let them know what you think of them.

Thanks @AussieScamBuster#187231. Can you possibly share how you worked out the wholesaler?
