My mother is 90 years old and in a nursing home she does not pay tax nor does she need to this is a scam I have reported it to the Australian Taxation Office.

I found a message on my answering machine exactly same as others. It was a recorded male message as representing CDPP about tax evasion. It is so clear that they do not have any information about the tax payer and normally tax office contacts you through letter. I checked my tax online it was all good.
Its a prank call put together by some scum bag claiming to be related to the ATO, my advice is as soon as you get the call, hang up - and if it comes through on yr mobile, add it to your blocked callers list.
Its purely some piece of crap low-life who's ultimate goal is to steal money from you.
Male, with ESL sub continental accent, left message on ACT home ph machine on 7/7/16, business hours, stating they were from/representing "CDPP Commonwealth Director Public prosecutions re a legal case for Australian taxation office for tax evasion & tax avoidance do not ignore this call, phone 02 6711 1621 urgently." They did not state which tax payers they wished to speak with. On checking the reverse number I identified this was likely to be a scam call as to my knowledge the ATO or CDPP does not have or use offices for any aspect of managing ACT returns in northern NSW.
Major scam pretending to be the ATO!! Hang up.
Or do what I do, ring back and give them a serving with whatever comes to mind before they hang up.
