A man who allegedly sent millions of scam text messages within seven days has also been accused of using passport and rape porn driver's licence details to commit fraud as he faced court for the first time.

Xuan Su, 39, is allegedly responsible for sending 17.5 million text messages pretending to be from Australia Post and toll company Linkt over one week in early December through an SMS phishing scam run from his home in south-west Sydney.

These scams typically involve using devices called SMS boxes to send out bulk messages directing people to websites using fraudulent links.

Su was flanked by supporters, including his wife and their young child when he appeared in Liverpool Local Court on Wednesday for a brief hearing.

Su was hit with a fresh charge, accused of using driver's licences, passports and other personal documents to commit fraud between September 2022 and December 2023 in Hurstville, according to documents filed with the court.
