Caller: No one called me, I called Letter stated 3 days to pay rego, as another person had paid it by accident. Yeah pigs arse. Sure I paid it. Can't access bank statements at the moment to confirm. Called again and said ok I will pay, but thru the online site. She said only phone payments accepted. Looked on vicroads, rego paid. Ok cancel rego, scammer. In lock down so can't go to vicroads office. The comment here saying the comments are laughable, is the scammer.

This is the telephone number for VicRoads Payment Services Department 1300 555 165. VicRoads issue letters following up payment issues when they occur.
The other comments on here are laughable and misleading.
The alternate number to call is 13 1171 but if you call this instead you may have to wait in lengthy queues which is why VicRoads provide a dedicated 1300 number for payment matters.

Caller: N/a 1300 555 165 is the number for the VicRoads payment services section. If you got a letter with this number, someone made a payment error for the rego number on the letter

Yes Scam Letter checked online and is paid, alarming how they have my details though. Business name, Registration number and home address. The little things started the alarm bells. - Business name one letter different - No directors name or signature - Small formatting spacings looked out of place. Punched phone number into google and this site came up, thanks to all above for the confirmations. Nice try but no cigar sorry.

Caller: a letter from vic roads I received the same letter from vicroads today. I called vicroads general number and asked about the letter. They confirmed the number is from their accounts team. They did receive a double payment from me for my registration. Money being returned as a result of the call. They did not ask for any bank information and cheque will be returned to my personal address.

We also received the letter but there was nothing wrong with our payment. CHECK VICROADS WEBSITE FIRST. Enter your rego on Vicroads and check when you are paid up until before anything. This letter is a BIG scam.

Caller: Fake letter Received a scam letter which looked pretty legitimate. Thought it was odd though, so I looked up the phone number on the website and it does not match. I will try call Vic roads on the number they provide online tomorrow. But very suspicious.
