I got a phone call today from a woman saying the same thing as the other callers....Call Richard quote number and he will tell you what to do. When l called Richard they hung up....Maybe he has had enough But no, 2 hrs later the woman rung up wanting to know if l had called him and l informed her it sounded like a scam and if there was money she can call Richard and quote the number for me if not send the cheque herself. She soon clicked that l knew and started backing off and said her good-bye's. l didn't give her any of my details but where do they get there info from????? The white pages?????

Same thing today. Didn't get the number but a woman with an Indian accent told me she was ringing on behalf of 'the Westpac' and 'the Australian Government' and was trying to return 'overcharge fees'. When I asked her for some verification that she was ringing on behalf of Westpac she told me my address. I then asked if there was anyone at the Westpac office I could speak to to confirm this (having got none of the usual mail notification) she replied that this 'money return' has been 'all over the media'. I told her I'd seen no such thing and she promptly hung up.
Very poor form

Got a call today from a young asian-sounding lady apparently saying she worked for the Australian government to reclaim money overcharged by our bank. Then proceeded to ask which bank I am with - which on later reflection gave it away as a scam, but only after the end of the call when I had given her also my first name. Checked on the internet and soon found the "Reclaim export" scam. But these people have adapted what they say based on past experience. Gone is John Smith, it was Richard Lee the person I should call to obtain my $4851. This scam got closer to convincing me than others, like I say it was only after I had put the phone down I fully realised. Possibly because I didn't think anyone could be so cold-hearted and bare-faced - claiming to be from the government, discussing with me my hard-earnt money. A sad reflection of the depths of human capacity.
