If you've noticed a missed call from a number you don't recognise (particularly international numbers), it is important that you don't call this number back and consider reporting this as a potential scam.
Phone companies are advising customers to reject these calls and if you have friends or family living overseas, it is recommended to have their numbers added as contacts in your mobile phone, so you can identify when they are calling you.
- Check out these tips from Netsafe for how to help protect yourself from scams.

The cat was her daughters, I hope the driver feels terrible... my point is that this road is used as a racetrack and soon it is going to be a person or small child that will be hit... I’ve had enough, who else? I think it’s time for speed bumps on Miramar North Road
Condolences to the lady’s daughter who lost her cat
