Scam!!! it seems that is the ATO, which I though that it was real cause the ATO is actually reviewing my tax returns. I spent over the phone 15 minutes till I realized that it was fake. I call a few times later on to follow up and make a laugh, I asked them why do they do a SCAM and he said that he loved steal money and then he hang out. They say that you cant pay over the phone so you have to go to BIGW (in that moment you realised that is super fake) and pay in person to some secret tax agent. So, not sure if they want to steal you money or express kidnap.

Scam

Just got a call from this number.

It was a recorded message with a female voice saying she was from some dept of the tax office and that I was going to be taken to court/arrested due to unpaid taxes (disability pensioner= I don't pay tax) and that I should call them back on this number to avoid going to jail.

Totally a scam... Looking forward to calling them back.

Just recieved the same phone call. Recorded message with no identification - no mention of my name, my address or any other indication that the caller knows anything about me. it's potentially a phishing scam. Don't call them back.

ATO scam stating that an affidavit has been taken out against me and that my house is under surveillance. Not to disregard this message and to phone the number back immediately. No reference number, no contact details used.

Not sure how you can be served an affidavit over the phone. Further, why they're calling from Launceston.
