NBN Co, the company building and upgrading Australia’s telecommunications and broadband network, is urging residents to be wary of scammers impersonating the wholesale network provider.  

Today new information has been published on the company’s website to help residents understand how to identify and avoid scammers posing as NBN Co.

The advice follows an 84 per cent increase in enquiries about suspected scams made to the wholesaler’s contact centre since October 2018. Approximately 24 per cent of those calls originated from residents in Victoria.
