So, just as I arrived home at night, I get a sudden call from a mysterious ISP (doubt it's Chorus) whom which the caller said that our streets are getting a network upgrade; yes I can tell that our street is indeed getting a nice network upgrade by Chorus (could be fibre). So after explaining me the details of the "special" deals on ADSL2+ broadband, the lady then asked me for my address, phone/mobile number, email address, our current ISP and account number and in such a suspicious move, our Drivers Licence number for "verification". Has anyone encountered this before, while their street is/was getting a network upgrade?

 

 

I know that for once scammers had over the years tried every method of trying to scam people out of their pocket or been stealing their details. But even though I have not received this kind of call before, I already have my suspicions up. Because I don't see what's the point of calling a random household in a middle of the night just to offer a good deal. I never heard of this promotion before, so what does everyone think?
