SCAM ALERT! Claims to be from ATO, seems very authoritative and lists legislation. They will claim you are being sued and will be appearing in court before asking if you have a 'criminal defence attorney to represent you?' They will then record your response. I've reported them to ACCC and the ATO. Overseas call centre using Canberra number.

Got a call when I was at work. I was advise that the ATO did an audit on me and I'm being charged with fraud & a warrant has been given to the local police. Sounded legit. Left work went to my solicitor, he tried to call from land line which he couldn't. We called back from my mobile, same guy answered, my solicitor asked who they are where there call from, they had the answers but when my solicitor asked a legal question the guy froze & asked his colleague in indian something, then the call was disconnected. My solicitor said it's probably bs. Went to the police to find out about any warrants on me they said there's nothing.
I was so pissed off, called them back another guy answered say that I had called the ATO, I played his game saying that I'm worried, don't know what to do. The guy on the phone thought he had me, then I said to him "IF I FOUND OUT WHERE HE WAS I WOULD CUT HIS FCKN INDIAN HEAD OFF & then do the same to the rest of his family" that's when the ATO guy lost it, telling me to f*ck myself, u Australian piece of sh*t . But at the end I told him that his mother is still on of the best Whores around loves gagging, I had the guy screaming at me lol 😂 I just laught at the end & hung up & blocked their number!

Apparently I ( or someone on our home number )have been issued an arrest warrant overseas, and I should call back. Automated message left, foreign accent.

ATO Scam, let them know you have spoken with the ATO and they have confirmed that this is a scam. Don't tell them anything

Yep, just got the call too, a pre recorded American accent. Would have probably believed it had I not just been talking to the ATO. Just dump the call, you don't know what they can do with voice recognition these day.

Received a call from them this morning and called them back for a laugh. The call is on a poor quality VOIP line with people whose English wouldn't even get them a job at the ATO.
He asked me not to interrupt his upcoming speech that was being recorded by the AFP, Attorney General and half a dozen other organisations. Then he proceeded to tell me about the arrest warrant that has been issued for me and the string of offences I am being charged with. The sentence has already been determined at $50,000 plus some jail time I think.

While I was curious to know exactly what scam this was, the call dropped out so I will never know how they were going to "help" me. Oh well, I'll just wait for the police to show up.

Just got the call from these wankers but I usually look up an unknown number first. Called them back and played along for a bit but when found out got called a "mthrfkr" hahaha. Keep calling them back and they take the phone off the hook. Lets just combine efforts and make their life hell instead!

Same call, i said my name was Prince Charles. Apparently I also have a law suit against me, and a warrant out for my arrest. Had fun with them, kept calling me Prince Charles, asked me to verify my address, advised Palace Road, Buckingham Palace. Guy was an idiot. Eventually caught on and started swearing. I was bored till this call. Thanks.
Sounded professional, new the legal speech, but all from work sheets.

Call from that this morning and assumed it was Sydney so answered it. Prerecorded American voice threatening me with serious legal proceedings unless I rang the number he gave. Told me it was in my interest. It was a command and scared the beejeesus out of me! Reported it
