ATO rang me from this number - saying they were going to send police around and arrest me for tax evasion

We have his voice on our answering machine if the police want it.

I received the same message stating there was an active warrant for my arrest relating to Tax Avoidance. I replied to the call, replying in a way to all of the scammer's comments so that he was confident he had a patsy on the line. I then asked if the matter related to recent money steam I had embarked on. He inquired what that was and I replied that I have been selling pictures on the Internet of me having anal intercourse with, and ejaculating on his mothers face. I may have used more vulgar words in my description. He exclaimed "Oh My God" and hung up.

I was just rung by Jason O'Connor who said he was from the ATO and that I had a file for tax evasion and was going to be issues a warrant for my arrest from the local police officer.
What a joke! The phone number they ask you to call is (02) 6140 3475.
the actual number that they call you from is (07) 3018 7514.

Ridiculous message was left on my answering machine / I would be arrested for tax evasion. Was asked to call back.

Indian or chinese person named dan andrews

They said I was corona traced and the military were coming to give me a Jan in the rear door...help

THIS NUMBER IS A SCAM

I received a phone call from a private number - I don't pick up private numbers and they left a voicemail. I listened to the computer generated voicemail telling me that I missed a call from Sergeant 'John Smith' at the 'ATO Crime Division' and that I or my attorney needed to phone them back immediately. The number they asked me to call was (02) 6172 0347 so I phoned the number back and an Indian man answered the phone; I told him that I had a voicemail to call this number back, he asked what my name was and when I told him he apologised and said they had phoned the wrong person.

Received the same message 16 Oct.15. Amazing how long this idiot has been doing this for and the ATO haven't caught nor charged him for impersonating a government official.

yep I got this recorded message too, with an Indian accent. Lol who cares, if someone is stupid enough to fall for this rubbish they deserve to get fleeced.

15 October 3.10pm. Had a phone message left by Jason O'Connor, same as above, tax avoidance, police will come. Reported to ATO, hope they catch up with him. What a w....really, ma please....

Got similar phone call today from an Alex saying it was for tax evasion. I said I don't give out confidential information on phone and said I wanted his ATO staff number, he said I don't have to supply it and I said I want phone number to call ATO myself. He said you can talk to me. He called me Miss all the time so I said "OK what is my full name and date of birth as ATO know this", he replied in a nasty tone "you cant avoid the taxation dept about fraud" and I said I am a police officer and you will be reported. He hung up.....sucked in to these scammers. I normally hang straight up but thought I would play this fools game and hopefully he wont phone back thinking I am the law, lol

Same here - scam

The ATO is aware of this scam. So is ScamWatch.

I received a similar call this morning (12 Oct 2015)
It appeared to be a recorded voice, representing the ATO. I was told a Law suit against me was about to commence for Tax evasion. A local Police officer was about to approach me and that I should ring (02) 6140 3475. Obviously a SCAM. Can this be followed up by our Authorities?

Same as the above. Our phone calls from this number were computer generated from Jason O'Connor about tax evasion. Two calls one day - 9th October, 2015.

Got the same message, first was James o'connor and said he was going to send round the post local police officer. He claims to be from the ATO.

Got the same message,,,,,NOT American accent, f......Filipino or Indian more like. F.....you!!!!

Same message from "james o'connor". Called the number back and a male said he has left for the day and could he help? Told him yeah, you are all scamming pieces of sh*t and to stop calling people u f*ck heads.
