Caller type: Scam call
Location: Australia
Caller: Claims to be ATO

Recorded message advising that ATO is investigating me and my family for tax fraud and a lawsuit has been filed. Claims that they've tried to contact me a number of times, but to no avail.
Thing is: it may be archaic, but ATO always writes, doesn't call with RVAs; the call didn't ask / confirm my name; googling the number e returned no results; it was an American accent, whereas if one calls the ATO, their RVAS are localised; and when it suggests I call back, it gave the phone number as ‭(02) 8006 8675‬- missing the initial zero as though it were a North American number.
I didn't call back for more info, lest it's one of those South Sudanese scams that cost a mint.
I call shenanigans.

Received an automated call from this number stating a suit had been filed under my name by the Australian Taxation Office for intentionally defrauding the Australian Government and that previous attempts to contact me were unsuccessful. The message also went on to ask me to call them back on the same stupid number. I did not bother as I know for sure this is a scam. I logged into MyGov to check the status of my tax return filed by a legitimate practising tax account and there are no issues reported on the MyGov portal. Please do not trust any such scam messages and think things through calmly, rationally before taking any hasty decisions and falling prey to such disgusting scams that prey on people's fears.

ATO is filling a suit against you and your family under tax fraud. 100% scam.
I always pay tax on time.

Pretty threatening, but nothing to worry about. Lawsuits don't work that way.
Just scammers.

I just received a call from this number claiming I was being investigated for fraud. It was an automated message. This is a SCAM...Can I report them to the police?

As the comments stated above, left a message about a lawsuit being filed. So annoying. Would really scare some people though.

100% scam.......claiming to be ATO in an automated American accent. Thing is, if you ring the Sydney number back it doesn't answer! So I am at loss trying to figure out what the scam is. Unless they answer and there is an open connection surely they can't hack your smart phone?

Caller: Claimed to be ATO

Claimed that they had attempted to contact me numerous times for deliberate fraud. That they were launching criminal case against me. American voice : claimed I should call them immediately on (02) 8006 8675 - clearly they don't know that in Australia we always have a zero in front. Looking at the history, this has been happening for months from the same number. Can't the ATO stop this sort of scam?

Caller: The scammers!

Got this recorded voice recording @ 11:43am 28th November claiming that I & my family have defrauded the ATO and a warrant was out for my arrest if I didn't call back on (02) 8006 8675 (supposedly (02) 8006 8675), which I know isn't a proper Aussie number. Stupid idiots if they think that I can be deceived like this.

BTW, what family are they talking about? My mum & dad, or my brother & sister?

I just got the call and that guy named james said I have 4 allegation against my tax file when I replied: " I already have my speech recognition on and ATO never call me, they just send the message or email, I will call ATO and ask to talk to you about the allegations" and suddenly he hung up. Feeling bad for all those people who innocently and unknowingly share their information.
