Yes.

No personal greeting (your name), requests for personal details, vague threat of disconnection, embed links (that don't start with optus.com.au

Just assume any and all SMS and emails requesting information are scams or worse.

Thanks Peter, it looked different to ones we had received in the past.  Wish Optus had a quick check function for them all but appreciate your response.

They're getting better and more polished every day. I've had a couple with damn near picture perfect presentation.

Yep scam, and the domain was created today

Don't think I've seen this variant before.

Hi and thanks Disey256,

so this is basically the same thing as mine, and you are saying that this was a scam, then my email must be the same by the looks of it.

Normally I just ignore them as i am getting lots of fake Optus emails most of the addressed as dear customer or friend and all that sort of stuff, but on this one it actually recommended Yes Crowd as a source of information that's what made it more genuine to me.
