Given that they remind readers what brands an Android phone phone could be, I don't think the article is aimed at many aussie zoners.

I guess they're trying to drive home that the scammer isn't coming at you with a poorly worded email riddled with typos here - the overlay can look legitimate (even if in some cases it still has typos lol). Probably would've been a bit much for them to cover every banking interface tbf.
