The NBN is rolling out across Australia and scammers are taking advantage of the uncertanty about the enforced changes many of us will experience over the coming months. Many people do not understand what is changing and how it is going to affect them. They do not know what to do and some are even fearful of how they will cope with the changes. So when an elderly person who has relied on their landline for many years and never had an Internet connection gets a call from someone proporting to be from the NBN they are likely to be influenced by what this person has to say. They are then shocked when the person on the phone says that their phone connection they have had all their lives is going to be cut off in 24hrs unless they follow the instructions of the caller. "The NBN will not cut off your phone in 24hrs" The important thing I want to get across here is that the NBN will not call you at home and the NBN will not cut off your phone in 24hrs. The NBN (National Broadband Network) is an Internet wholsaler and they do not sell Internet services to the public so they have no reason to ring you at home. So if you get a call from someone saying they are from the NBN just hang up and do not follow any instructions thery give to you or leave on your message service. The only people who will want to talk to you about your impending NBN connection will be Internet resellers such as Telstra, Optus, TPG, Aussie Broadband and a few others. When the NBN is close to being available in your area you will start to get brochures in your letterbox and perhaps a phonecall from your exsisting provider. When to time comes to choose your NBN reseller you will have 18months to make your selection so there is plenty of timne to research and shop around to find the best reseller for your needs.
