Watch Out for Scammers, Says Tax Office
The Commissioner has reminded people to be aware of scam behaviour and to report anything suspicious. The focus of scams in most instances is to steal personal information. The Tax Office says scammers use phone calls, letters, text messages, emails, bogus websites and even job advertisements to try to obtain financial or other personal details. Once scammers have this information they can steal an individual's identity and commit fraud. Suspicious behaviour can be reported to the Tax Office confidentially by phoning 1800 060 062.
