I received a spam telephone message saying they were the Australian Taxation Office and were going to take me to Court for tax avoidance.

I received several phone calls supposedly from the Australian Tax Office advising that I was delinquent and would be taken to court. I've advised Telstra of this scam and have blocked this number so it can no longer bother me.

DO NOT GIVE OUT YOUR INFO!!! The Australian Tax Office will never contact you this way, less threaten you verbally.

Claiming to be from the ATO. Avoid it. The ATO would not do this. If in doubt look up the official ATO numbers and give them a call. This number is not listed on the ATO website.

I received this as a message saying it was the tax office chasing me for tax avoidance and I have a warrant out for my arrest. Scam all over!!!

Yeah, I got the same message today.

I Dont know who this is but apparently they are from the ATO. they called me twice today and I don't know what's going on. Who are u

THREATENING MESSAGE RE TAX AVOIDANCE! I just hung up - I am retired & have NO taxable income at all.

Received a telephone message from a guy called Adam claiming to be from the ATO and will be taking me to court for tax avoidance. After talking to my accountant re this phone message he suggested it was a hoax/scam and should ignore it.

left message carrying on about tax and court lunatics spam

I have received 2 calls today from this number and automated voice message saying they were from the Australia Taxation Office and going to take me to court for tax avoidance

Scammers wanting tax money

Spam telephone call saying it was the tax department for tax avoidance. submitted number to ATO.

I had a similar message, from a man who sounds Irish. It which was rather garbled and I could not hear the beginning, However, he said there had been an audit, and I may be arrested for non payment, and I should speak to my lawyer and call them back. I have saved the message and the number appears on the screen of my phone.

Yep - I am accused of tax avoidance and if I don't pay up will be taken to court. I or my lawyer can ring this no! On my landline - no name. Not convincing. Scam.
