Called ATO - nothing has been applied for and this transaction was not in place. ATO suggested not to respond just block number

Caller: regarding super

Got an sms confirming I had ask for COVID-19 release of super, I hadn't. Called the number from a generic office phone and got a recorded message from "Pacific Super" asking for my details to confirm registration.

Notification of approval. You should only receive a message from this number upon request.

Caller: Scam

Its not Australian Super But phone answers "Pacific Super". Dial the Number before you make this statement please. Most likely you find MYGOV account was hacked asking for it. Check that you have your account listed not another one on MYGOV

(I have used exactly the sane annotations and grammar) in my original text message, i rang Australian Super and the ATO and all is well.

I have now lost $10,000.00 to scammers on this number. Most likely i will end up in a jail when i trace them as not only them, but there cousins, aunties, brother and sisters will face extreme measures.

Sounds like scam.....

also just received this text message - 0480 046 150
seems highly suspect

This is a scam do not contact or do anything this is a joke

PLEASE CHECK YOUR MYGOV ACCOUNT! We've had both ours hacked and applications for 20K of our super have been lodged by the hackers. If you've received this message, there's a chance someone has lodged an early release application on your behalf and it is genuinely your Super fund asking permission to release the funds. DON'T IGNORE THIS MESSAGE! Find the phone number for your super fund (don't call the number in the message) CALL YOUR SUPER FUND and check.

My husband got this message tonight. Turns out someone has hacked BOTH our myGov accounts and lodged applications for 10K from each of us for early release of our super. Please, if you get this message, check your myGov account. It's likely someone has fraudulently accessed your myGov account and is actively in the process of stealing your superannuation.

Received sms regarding early super release. Like previous poster said, when you dial the number you get an automatic message from "Pacific Super" asking you to register which is very off since only ATO administers early super release.
