A lot of people get caught out by this scam (safe link).

I strongly suggest reporting it to Scam Watch.

I think this one is worse (particularly for us in WA):

scam (safe link)

And, this one in particular:

Hopefully, these scams will come to an end in March next year.

It's run by the ACCC, cods.

Are you suggesting that the ACCC is a scam?

And, why are you so concerned about providing your details when reporting a scam - do you have something to hide?

Now they have your phone number marked as a sucker or a tax cheat.

I always with hold my number, never ring an unknown number direct- there are so many scams and many get taken in by  them, I would like to know how many they actually suck in- I think the percentage would be high.

I love the ones the Nigerians used to offer- you have been selected to be the recipient of untold wealth if you just do xxxx.  My mother /sister is sick and is heir/ess to family fortune- they obviously have a good strike rate or why bother. Cost's nothing to send an email.

  I think on the internet its prudent to never provide your details- if we are not meant to be able to tell the fraudsters from the real deal especially.  I get suspicious if the police ask for my name and phone number if I am filing a complaint re: nosy partying at 4am.. you have the report now go tend to it!

Actually, it doesn't ask for your details.
