Scam Alert...Received the call today from "Chris Bryan" from the "ATO" also offering me a reward for being such a good citizen, paying my taxes on time!!Haha!! They gave me the number (02) 6100 3286 to call to verify, and my Application number A840. Needless to say, I didn't call...like VM, I can't beleive that they think we would believe that the ATO would be giving out handouts for being a good citizen!

I got the same message and I did not belive and told him to give some charity organiation.
Dumb, perverted people . Don't trust these scumbags.

Received a call yesterday (Saturday) from a man with indian accent claiming to be from ATO and breaking the news that the ATO was rewarding a few Aussies for being good taxpayer and not filed for bankruptcy. He wanted me to speak to his supervisor to claim the money. I asked to call him back and he gave me number (02) 6100 3286 to call and ref number A350. Called the number and was answered as ATO by an lady with indian accent and I knew this was suspicious as ATO has an automated response and you have to select an option. I said I needed to speak to some regarding the ref number and she asked for my name. I told her she should have that detail with her based on the ref number. I challenged her that it was a fake outfit and would report them and she hung up.

Received a call today from a lady with fake accent claiming to be from ATO and breaking the news that either my partner or I have won $8000 grant among 1200 Aussies for being good taxpayer and not being criminal in last 12 months (?). She wanted to confirm my address which I challenged. She was going to fax my application to Canberra office(?). When I openly said that she is not from ATO and whether I could find such scheme on the ATO Website, she gave me this phone number to contact and Ref# A526. I said I will find about it. I asked her what specific name she was going to use, she gave me my initials but could not provide specific name. After that she abruptly disconnected. I am shocked to realize how these scammers are so dumb that they don't know what every Australian taxpayer knows...ATO will never grant free money to taxpayers ever...

They just called me 5 minutes ago and said they would ring me back, same scenario, the Gillard government was handing out $7400 for me being a good girl etc.  I am waiting to hear back from them. They have not asked for anything off me yet, but they are ringing back.

called their another no (03) 9016 0245 and the guy said ANZ office. i asked theaddress and he gave 14 masn street dandenong. i live in dandenong and this address is of ATO office not of ANZ office. big scam they re using.

Same deal. Sounds like the same people that called me 2 weeks ago saying they're from Microsoft and I have malware lol. Looks like I'm on their list or something
