I received the same call tried to say I had evaded taxes, I didn't even have a job...... Disgusting, he should be caught and dealt with. His ph no.03 87517055.
I received a phone call from 02 6188 5661 about tax evasion. Called back and spoke to a guy, who certainly had his story together. He identified himself as Kevin Sosa, gave his ID# as 908942 and my case ID # as SC4212RC. He said that he was from the Audit Dept from the ATO and that I was going to get a call from the police within half an hour and they would seize my passport and take me to court.
This number has been continually calling my grandparents from the ato... I rang back he was so rude!
Year another scam call alluding to be from the ATO. Guess we're all going to prison!

Another call 12.52pm Private number came up. Guy told me he was from ATO and I owed money, told him good luck as I owe nobody anything. He told me I would be getting a phone call from local police, told him already had one this morning from overseas good luck getting anything. He hung up.02 is NSW I live in 03 Victoria so how can it be local police.
This guy should be stopped.
Got the call today on my answering machine for 02 6188 5663 (one number different).
First: ATO will almost NEVER call you.
Second: They will ONLY leave a 13 xx xx number.
Third: I rang the number, got the badge number and name of the person, then reported it all to ATO.
Confirmed with ATO it is a SCAM.

My elderly mother just received a call from the same number (twice).9.47am and 12.10pm. In the similar vein as listed in the complaint above.
Automated message advising they are the ATO and for us or our lawyers to call before we get arrested. Total scum bags.
We just received the exact same call left on our answering machine. An American man saying we would get arrested by our local police for treachery if we didn't ring back. Obviously a scam.
We also had a call left on the answering machine at the parents place which said that exact speil above. It was at 232pm tuesday the 23rd august. We did not call it back as I researched it cause it did not sound right. Thanks for the above info!!!
Just received an answerphone message from an american man saying: Before the case gets registered with the commonwealth court regarding details of your treachery and you get arrested by the local police department, we want you or your lawyer to contact us back on 0261885661.
THIS IS A SCAM = the same man rang me last friday and demanded to know my name and details. I refused to give him this information instead I demanded to know his details. He refused. This went on for several minutes before he finally spat out that his name was Officer White. When I advised him that I would be lodging a complaint with our local law enforcement/telephone service provider he hung up.
