Email Fraud Targets the Tax Office

The Tax Office has warned people about a fraudulent email being circulated that claims to offer a refund from the Tax Office.

The email fraudulently uses the Tax Office logo and has the words ‘Australian Taxation Office – Please Read This’ in the subject line.

The Tax Office is advising people who receive the email that it does not contain any malicious software but to delete it immediately.

The email asks people to click on a link which redirects them to a website that looks similar to the Tax Office website and asks for credit card and personal details.

This website is not affiliated with the Tax Office in any way.
