Recorded message threatening arrest if overdue tax owed is not paid
How gullible do they think we are when so much on radio about these scams

I keep getting both the recordings. Having previously worked for the ATO I can assure you that the ATO would NEVER make a call like this. It is just another scam.

Yep, 7 calls yesterday and another 6 today from an Indian bloke wanting our concerned attorney to contact him. I called the number and it rings out. SCAM SCAM. I'm interested to know whether anyone who took the call and told him to bugger off meant the calls stopped???

Nasty scammer. Told by the Police that if you ring it back it diverts overseas. What can we do about older or ignorant & isolated targets of this fraud?

Got 2 messages today with the recording like other people mentioned. Called back & the Indian male whose voice was on the message answered "Australian Tax Office". When I said to him that he called me & Ieft a message & I was calling him back & what was this about he said it was "the Brown's residence" & denied saying he answered as the ATO. Then he said he should call the police right away & put me on hold - I left phone on & the on hold music eventually stopped so he must have put it down. Why would this scammer not try scam me? Maybe I sounded too "with it" or too young? Maybe I didnt fit his target market.Feel sorry for those he targets & scams. WHY CAN'T THIS NUMBER BE DISCONNECTED BY THE PHONE PROVIDERS???????

These scum are the reason Nuclear weapons were invented. They blame the white man for all their woes. Look at Zimbabwe:- once the powerhouse economy of africa, exporting to the world. Then Mugabe took over:- look at it now- and yet...... he blames the white man.

Have just had 3 calls from this number in 30 minutes. Aggressive foreign voice telling me I will be arrested for tax fraud and to contact this number. I thought it would be a scam but checked with reverse australia telephone number lookup just incase. Was very scary and I think an elderly person would be very intimidated had they recieved a call like this.

Message left same as above. The fact they refer to "attorney" rather than solicitor or accountant etc is a bit of a giveaway. Third call in two days. Comes in an OS number but leaves you this local number to call. Scum

Recorded message claiming to be from ATO, scumbag scammers advising warrant issued for arrest over unpaid tax. Invited to call them back, did so using Skype and some-one answered as the ATO with a foreign accent, asked me for name, gave them a false surname. They then asked for my phone, which I refused to give, and then hung up on me. How they're not shut down is beyond me, they have to have a valid telephone number to operate, obviously calls to that number are diverted offshore and the number is being misused to commit fraud. Will call ACMA to find out why it can't be shut down.

I have messages on my answering machine asking me to ring this number or to get my lawyer to call the above number. I have received quite a few and it is becoming annoying. How do I get this Asian person to stop calling my number? These days I let my unrecognised phone numbers go to voice mail. The problem with this is that I have Telstra 101 and unless you clear the call it won't let you make another call.
