Supposed Centrelink call stating that they have attempted to get in touch with me several times and that I have not responded. They stated that their call related to back payments and an increase in my benefits. As I had not responded they advised the case had been transferred to Canberra Centrelink, and quoted my application no. 080456 to use when contacting Canberra office.
When is something going to be done about these extremely nuisance calls?

Caller: A guy with an Indian accent claiming ATO officer with a batch number 417J2741

A call claiming to be from Centrelink (with an Indian accent) left on voice message on my landline then I dialled the phone number (02) 8317 1419 (Canberra?) on 18/09/2018. They stated that their call related to back payments of CentreLik and an increase in my benefits. As I had not responded they advised the case had been transferred to Canberra Centrelink, and quoted my application no. 080456 to use when contacting Canberra office.I did and they threatened me with huge fine and jail terms of up to 7 years.
When is something going to be done about these extremely nuisance calls? DO WE HAVE ANY SECURITY IN THIS COUNTRY?

Centrelink scammers who left robotic message on my answering machine regarding incomplete claim application number. I called them and when I told them I wasn't on any sort of Centrelink benefits they hung up on me. Please ignore especially if you are on benefits.

Supposedly Centrelink. I doubt it. Same story as Anonymous on 27/8/18 right down to application number 080456. Unfortunately I wasn't home to get the call but they left a very long recorded message on my answerphone telling me to ring (02) 6529 0157. Guess what? (02) 6529 0157 is also registered on this site as scammers.

I received the same recorded call stating they were from Centrelink, if it’s reported to Scamwatch & we give the phone No why cant scamwatch check with the Telcos who have rented that Phone No & then they should be able to find the Scammers. Or is it against our Aust law to give that info out & just let the scammers continue on. Makes me wonder if the Telcos would rather rent the phone Nos out for ???$$$ than give the info to Fed Police.

Same as above. However, I wonder if they have access to Centrelink records or it is just hopeful that you are on a Pension or similar.

Surely their numbers can be traced?
