Scam Alert: MyGov

People are still losing money with scams impersonating Government departments.

If you receive a call or message claiming to be from the Australian government requesting personal information, offering a refund or asking you to make an urgent payment, visit their website (ending with .gov.au) or contact them on their publicly listed number to validate the request.

The above example scam message has a website ending with .info, definitely not an official website.

Do not rely on the contact information provided by callers or in emails and SMS.
