Fraudulent activity on TPG account

Has anyone else in this community had their TPG account compromised? My father has a TPG account for home internet and phone, as well as 2 mobile numbers. Over the last few months his TPG account has been compromised, including:

1. The landline phone has been diverted numerous times to other numbers, preventing him from receiving calls from institutions verifying change of detail or transaction requests

2. A fraudulent TPG email account was created and emails from institutions to verify change of detail or transaction requests were sent to the new email account, so he didn't receive them 

I was wondering if others in this community had experienced similar issues and: 

- How did you resolve them? 

- What did TPG do to help?

I had two emails today from update-no-replys@tpg.com.au claiming my auto payment was unsuccessful and requesting to update my payment details. I believe its fraudulent. Can anyone at TPG confirm?

This will be forwarded to our Post Masters for further investigation and handle it internally.

 

Always visit your TPG My account to further check the information or update your credit card details for the safety of your account.

Thank you @BasilDV.

 

FYI, I'm continuing to receive multiple emails daily like this one from the same sender (update-no-replys@tpg.com.au). I've now added this as a blocked sender in Post Office,

I have been getting the same e:mails 3 times now.  Seems to be every couple of days they try.

I have the same.

If it has a link in it then it is a scam. I have just confermed it with TPG, and they state that it was not sent by them they recommend reporting it to www.acma.gov.com.au
