02 3814 0263 (0238140263): Mixed reports including Revenue NSW impersonation claims, robocalls with no one speaking, threats about driving licences, and phishing SMS. Some callers had legitimate account details.
Revenue NSW Impersonation Reports for 02 3814 0263
The number 02 3814 0263 (also written as 0238140263) has generated 20 community reports with a complex pattern mixing legitimate Revenue NSW contact alongside credible impersonation attempts. Eight contributors have flagged this as a scam, with six reports specifically identifying impersonation tactics where callers claimed to represent Revenue NSW.
The critical distinction emerges from report details: legitimate callers from 02 3814 0263 reportedly had correct account information and called about actual outstanding debts, while scammers used the same impersonation claim to pressure people about fines they didn't owe. One contributor stated they received calls claiming an overdue fine existed when they had no outstanding fines. Another reported being threatened with driving licence loss despite having no debt record.
What Callers from 02 3814 0263 Claim
Contributors report callers from 02 3814 0263 claiming to be from Revenue NSW regarding overdue fines and government debts. The impersonation tactic involves identifying as a government revenue officer, sometimes using accurate personal details to appear legitimate. One contributor noted the caller had correct account details, lending false credibility to the scam variant.
Threatening language appears in multiple reports about 0238140263. One contributor received two calls threatening loss of driving licence with unusual urgency and aggression. Another report describes a caller demanding immediate payment with time-limited pressure tactics. Several reports mention callers creating artificial urgency around supposed overdue amounts, with one SMS including a clickable link allegedly for payment.
Silent calls and robocall patterns also feature prominently. One contributor reported the number repeatedly calling with crackling sounds and no one speaking when answered. Another described receiving a call in the middle of the night from overseas, then calling back to reach an automated message stating "not assigned to a client."
Distinguishing Legitimate from Fraudulent Calls
Six reports confirm 02 3814 0263 is used by legitimate Revenue NSW representatives making lawful debt recovery calls. Contributors who verified the legitimacy noted they called back independently through official Revenue NSW channels and confirmed the debt genuinely existed. One contributor stated the caller "spoke with actual representative, confirmed it's real and not a scam."
The scammers exploiting 0238140263 appear to target people unfamiliar with genuine Revenue NSW contact procedures. A key differentiator: legitimate callers from 02 3814 0263 discuss debts the recipient actually owes, while fraudulent calls claim debts that don't exist. One contributor with no fines received a false demand, while another with a legitimate debt received verified contact from the same number.
Call Patterns and Timing
Reports about 02 3814 0263 span from late 2023 through early 2026, showing sustained activity. Multiple contributors received repeated calls from this number, with one noting the caller "keeps calling." Calls arrive across different times including middle-of-the-night overseas calls and standard business hours contact.
The channel breakdown shows most reports come from answered calls, with one SMS report containing a phishing link and a missed call during unsociable hours. Contributors describe varied caller behaviour ranging from no one speaking (silent calls with crackling) to aggressive demands and threats. One report mentions calling back and reaching what appeared to be RTA (Roads and Maritime Services) infrastructure despite the number claiming to be Revenue NSW.

Caller claimed to be from Revenue NSW
Indian male voice claiming to be calling from NSW Revenue. He pretends to use a landline but is really using VOIP (causing a delay when he speaks). This likely means they're spoofing the number. I contacted NSW revenue and they told me they don't use this number. My guess is there's an Indian employee who works for NSW Revenue who has accessed confidential client information (name, phone number, case issue). They then sell this info onto scammers who try to get you to pay. This sort of scam is worse than most since they're accessing genuine NSW Revenue case information.

WRITE A REVIEWFrequently Asked Questions
Is 02 3814 0263 actually from Revenue NSW?
The number 02 3814 0263 (0238140263) is used by both legitimate Revenue NSW representatives and scammers impersonating them. Legitimate callers from this number have been verified by contributors who independently contacted Revenue NSW and confirmed actual debts. However, scammers also use 0238140263 to claim false debts. To verify: independently contact Revenue NSW through the official number on your tax notice or check myGov to see if you actually owe money before believing any caller from 02 3814 0263.
What should I do if 0238140263 claims I owe a fine I don't recognize?
Hang up immediately and independently verify through official channels. Log into myGov to check your actual debt status, or call Revenue NSW using the number on your official tax notice - not by calling 02 3814 0263 back. One contributor received false fine claims from this number despite owing nothing. Legitimate Revenue NSW representatives expect you to verify independently and will not pressure you into immediate payment over the phone.
Why did 0238140263 threaten to cancel my driving licence?
This is a known scam tactic reported by multiple contributors about 02 3814 0263. Revenue NSW does not threaten driving licence cancellation through unsolicited calls. One contributor reported receiving two calls with threats about losing their licence. If 0238140263 threatens you with licence loss, arrest, or legal action, this is a scam indicator. Hang up, do not engage, and report the call to police and ACMA.
I received a silent call and robocall from 02 3814 0263 with crackling sounds. What does this mean?
Contributors report 02 3814 0263 making repeated robocalls with crackling sounds and no one speaking when answered. One report describes calling back and reaching an automated message saying "not assigned to a client." This pattern suggests either a compromised phone line, a callback scam (where you call back and reach a fraud operation), or an auto-dialler system used for scam distribution. Block 0238140263 and do not call it back.
Should I click the link in the SMS from 02 3814 0263 about owing money?
No. One contributor received an SMS from 02 3814 0263 with a link claiming they owed money, but did not click it. Links in SMS messages from 0238140263 are phishing attempts designed to steal personal or banking information. Do not click any links from this number. Report the SMS to 0429 999 888 and delete it. If you believe you might owe a debt, contact Revenue NSW directly using the official number on your tax notice.
Why does 02 3814 0263 have both legitimate and scam reports?
The number 02 3814 0263 (0238140263) appears to be actively used by Revenue NSW for genuine debt collection, but the same number is being spoofed or compromised by scammers. This is common in impersonation scams where criminals use a partially legitimate-looking number. Contributors confirming legitimacy had actual outstanding debts and verified the call independently. Contributors reporting scams were either threatened about fake debts or received robocalls with no one speaking. Always independently verify any call from 02 3814 0263 before providing information or payment.
