Appears to be tax scam

received a call today on mobile was a recording indicating that i and my wife had a warrant for our arrest for outstanding fines from ato. Then they called again within 20/30 mins was an Indian male voice saying that he was from the ato ,about outstanding tax payment and wanted our current address details, i said if you are ato you have our current details then started to give address that was 20 yrs old in another state. So be careful everyone was trying to get details as well of a bank details. As soon as i said you are a scammer he hung up.

the same message as above

Scam as everybody has realised. With the money that Govts and Public Servants receive wouldn't you think they could wipe out scammers. Scammers should spend their time helping the poor people of the world, not their own pockets.

Same as others. Recorded message claiming to be from AFP acting on behalf of ATO. Scum.

How dare he or any one threaten me with a warrant.Should be reported to the police.A..hole

Scan call from ATO wanting credit card payment for outstanding amounts or arrest warrant will be issued

Recorded English voice saying I am under police investigation for tax crime.
Warrant for arrest etc.
Call (02) 6100 8340
Obviously a scam.

CRIMINAL SCAMMERS! recorded message, threatening male voice, threatening legal action over scam false ATO matter, I think these are the scammers who try to get you to buy i-tunes cards as exposed by The Checkout on ABC tv. These calls amount to 2 criminal offenses: Misuse of a telecommunications device and inflicting mental and emotional abuse.THIS IS A SCAM! Must be very upsetting for old or vulnerable people. Utterly disgusting.

same message left on our answering machine as all of the above!! An obvious scam!

Advises an arrest warrant will be issued for unpaid taxes and to phone this number to resolve the issue. Why are these fraudsters not being tracked down and dealt with?

A recorded voicemail left on my mobile. Said a warrant had been issued from my arrest and to call the number immediately.

Recorded message (in well-spoken English). Usual tax scare, arrest warrants etc. They give this number to ring, so presumably the number works otherwise the scam would be pointless.

I feel sorry for the naive or elderly who get this sort of stuff. Probably quite distressing.

Why are these scammers still allowed to annoy people

What a disgusting message! Saying they're from the tax office and there will be a warrant out for my arrest. 'Don't ignore!' the caller exclaims. Somebody get hold of these A-holes!

I got the same call today and I know it was a recorded message but it gave me a little satisfaction to tell him to “F off”

bring back the death penalty for those persistent scammers who ruin people's lives

My daughter received a call, very distressing, as she is ill. Mans voice said executing a warrant, from Tax Office, she doesn't work. Legal case, etc etc, we rang back the number and it doesn't answer.

Same as above. AFP calling on behalf of the tax office re outstanding debt but they just say 'you have an outstanding warrant' so it's a general call that goes to everyone they contact.
