This is the well known "This is the ATO and there is a warrant out for your arrest" scam. The fact that the phone number was answered when I rang back (my I.D. blocked) so I would suggest that this number and the details be reported to the ACCC Scam watch. I don't know if it will help but it might. This call was received less than 5 minutes after I got my regular "You have a problem with your computer" call. These telephone and internet frauds are getting out of control.

Received AFP and ATO SCAM call from this number. HANG UP IMMEDIATELY. The tax office would address you by name and the message is from a male recorded voice.

Another scam - do not call back. The tax office does not use methods like this!

Apparently I am about to be arrested because of trouble with Tax Office. Good laugh anyway.
