Update: @HESTASuper has published a response on their Facebook comments. Confirms messages came from HESTA but not why or if it was an error.

[Nick Crawford @NVelociraptorC]

Hundreds of @HESTASuper customers have received multiple unsolicited text messages.

Website is down.
No answer from call centre (many on hold or given up.)

No statement from #HESTA about what's going on. But they ARE deleting/hiding comments on Facebook.

[Nick Crawford @NVelociraptorC]

Hopefully this is just a glitch.

[Nick Crawford @NVelociraptorC]

@jodiehastweeted Hesta currently deleting/hiding coments asking for informtaion on their Facebook page.

[Nick Crawford @NVelociraptorC]

@ABC Might want to reach out to HESTA Super regarding possible data breach happening now.
