This number supposedly from the tax office called and left intimidatory messages about paying immediate tax -- a scam???

My uncle in Melbourne had the same message left twice. He's retired & hasn't paid tax in 20 years. He called the police who said they'd look into it.

scam calls (she has had multiple) to my 90 yr old mother about tax evasion, payment required;

ATO Scam. Mac (Matt?) Miller from the ATO etc.

Yes - it's a scam. Don't take any notice of the messages these bastards leave - and you probably will get more messages. Once they start, they seem to ring 5 or 6 times, and then - I presume - move on to someone else. I always report these calls to Scamwatch,

These scammers are constantly ringing our house say that we are wanted for tax evasion and that we need to call them immediately. We have been receiving these calls for more than 12 months but they are getting worse. Yesterday I had 3 messages on my answering service saying the exact same thing and today another 1 and 2 hang ups.. This number needs to be disconnected. Or I might even disconnect mine.. To stop arseholes like these ringing us. By the way we pay our taxes...

Male with an Indian accent, posing as a representative from the ATO IQ headquarters, left message, saying we had to call back (no name) re a tax evasion and fraud case and if we don't return call immediately then to be prepared to pay legal fees.

Same , 2 messages left , but I got him a good one I let him talk then when I spoke after 15 min of having fun with him ,I told him I had recorded the whole thing , he was very pissed of , which made me very happy . Low life's

Scumbags never take a break. You would think in this day and age of high tech.something could be done to catch these low life predators.

I got a call to my home phone about tax evasion and tax fraud. That they would come down with the full force of the law. Very convincing, an American calling about Australian tax. I'm a student so I don't pay tax at the moment and my parents pay theirs every year without fail, got the receipts to prove it.
At least with a mobile you can block the number, home phones it a bit harder. I really hate the people, they scare you and try to intimidate you hoping it some technologically disadvantaged person that will take this call seriously and then what take their money. These people need to be stopped and punished.

Scam call

Sounded like an automated message saying we are being investigated for tax evasion and tax fraud if we don't call back we will be in worse trouble.
