Call back number for Bank Refund Scam Blocked call from Indian call centre telling me this was the Aus Govt calling to tell me that I am entitled to $6325 in bank fee refund. They wanted my DOB which I fibbed and then I was to call (02) 8006 0455 to claim my refund. I called the number with and they said they were the Aus Govt refund office. I hung up.

This indian speaking lady spoke to me about a similar sum of money that the Reserve Bank is going to refund to me , she gave me a case # PG 142 and to call her supervisor alleged name Alan Johnson who speaks like a full blooded Indian on that number above Alan asked me to go to the post office and get a Western Union form then come out of the post office and call him. This form is for me to pay a lawyer in Australia who fix this refund for me and it's going to cost me $290 dollars for a lawyer's fee what he didn't know was they call the lawyer a solicitor in Australia.

Had the same thing and I too was going to receive 6325. dollars. Got to the part where they wanted money for me to get the money. When I said I was recording this conversation they hang.

Funny they owe me the exact amount you are owed, nothing fishy there. Same number to call back on and all. I didn't bother to call it.
