Caller: ATO Scam Voicemail left advising i have an "outstanding Tax Debt with the ATO and an arrest warrant has been issued by the DPP (Director of Public Prosecutions) for your address under your name". First of all, ATO doesn't operate like that, I've worked for the ATO before lol. If you have a debt they'll contact you by mail or phone, but they're not going to leave a VM saying you're going to be arrested. And it certainly ain't gonna be some robot mong on the other side leaving that VM. There's proper scripting that the ATO will go through for a voicemail. And the direct contact number that should always be called is 13 28 61. The ATO won't leave a Landline number for return contact and should always have either 13 or 18 as their beginning contact numbers.

Caller: Allegedly ATO Recorded message. Something about the ATO and income tax violations reported by their informant scheme. As if they'd have a robot call me - They'd send me a legal letter in the post, or at least use mygov. SCAM!!!
