This group is cold calling people saying they are from the "National Rebate Initiative". They say that this is an Australian Government initiative.
FACT 1: There is no such initiative from the government. FACT 2: There is no company or trading name registered with this name.
They will ask you for details of whether you are a homeowner under 60, and how much you earn.
DO NOT GIVE THEM YOUR DETAILS.
If you do, they will: 1) Tell you that you can save $8,000 – $15,000 per year. and 2) Ask to send someone round to your house. This appointment will be about investing in property – and losing money in it (negative gearing).
When quizzed about how they got our phone number, they say they use a 'register of all homeowners in Australia'.
This company (if it is one) is NOT adhering to the National DO NOT CALL Register.
If you get a call – please update this thread with further identifying details of the culprits, and also advise scamwatch.gov.au
