My partner also had a call said the government had taken money from his credit card and they wanted to repay it I explained that if it had come from our credit card that would have been shown on the statement but he tried to tell me that it wasn't the case.  Anyway he also got told to Mark Jones on that same no. we have tried but no answer or engaged is this a fraud.  Same amount $4851.

Funny that.

a woman claiming to be from the government with government quotes ad everything said to ask for Mr Mark Jones

Just had a call this morning from a lady who asked me to verify my identity and call back Mark Jones on (02) 8005 4979 same details as other comments except they said a Gavin Rogers would deliver my cheque number 22950 within 2 hrs of me sending money to western union acc. She said the fee was for lawyers fees and this was the only way it could be paid. I said i think this is a scam and she said OK so you want me to cancel your application I said yes thanks and started to say that it was unfair to treat people like this and she hung up on me!!!

i had the same call 10 mins ago i would like 2 know wtf is going on

Hi i also got a call this morning.they are absolutely stupid and fake ppl. Idiots!!

I just had another scammer, trying to tell me that I was owed $4,851.00 and he was from a company called Reclaim Expert Department. They tell you your bank has over charged you and broking the law and the Australian Government want them to pay you back. They give you their so called managers names and then say call them to give them your details so you can have the cash deposited into your bank account within 2 days. AGAIN PLEASE don't give any information out
