Scam call reported by Jack
Found this message on my phone purporting to be from the "ATO representing the Commonwealth Directors of Public Prosecutions headquartering at Canberra ACT. There is a legal case which has been filed against your name for tax evasion and tax avoidance. I want you or your lawyer to get back to us on our call back number 0288800461. This is a time sensitive matter so please get back to us as soon as possible. Thank you and goodbye." An American accent, but may have been a robotic voice or disguised. Very official sounding and credible. But don't be fooled, it is a scam, which I was soon able to establish by calling the ATO scams phone number 1800 008 540.

Scam call reported by Jason
Had a recorded message from a person (automated robotic voice) purporting to be from the ATO and claiming I was being prosecuted for tax avoidance. The fellow (Alex Cooper) rattled off some random case numbers and said if I didn't pay $4,985 by credit card in the next 90 minutes the police would be sent to my house to arrest me and take me to jail. He became very agitated when I said I didn't own a credit card. High pressure SCAM. Report to the www.scamwatch.gov.au website and spread the word.

SCAM - do not call back - ATO will never call threatening legal action - call ATO on one of their contact numbers to report the scam call, but do not call back and don't give your personal details.

I did call back the number left on my answering machine, but it didn't take long for me to suspect a scam. He claimed they were pursuing me for tax avoidance, specifically unpaid tax on interest over past 6 years, named in excess of $3000. Strange considering my interest doesn't even amount to $500. I asked for name and ID to enable me to verify if the caller was from ATO. Was given Roger Clark ID 11257. It wasn't long and he hung up. A call to the ATO scams number confirmed everything. One thing I was assured of was the ATO will not phone me like that - they will mail only.

Recorded message in American sounding voice saying they are legally representing the Australian Taxation Office for Tax avoidance... I need to call them with my Solicitor details. As I haven't defrauded anyone.. believe to be a scam.
