Vodafone says 24 million scam calls reached its customers through one Australian carrier
Vodafone says 98 per cent of scam calls reaching its customers over the past year, more than 24 million, came through Symbio, an internet phone company owned by Aussie Broadband. TPG Telecom executive Vanessa Hicks called for urgent action closer to the source of the calls. Aussie Broadband chief executive Brian Maher said the company disconnects persistent bad actors and has made significant progress. The Australian Communications and Media Authority said its checks showed the regulations were working and that the apparent sources were overseas telcos.
