Beware of Mobile Number 0488 828 535

 Beware of this mobile number, claimed to be from Information Australia, assisting ATO to give rebate back to eligible customers.

 I started quizzing him becos I never heard of any rebate from ATO and asked him to point me to the link on ATO site giving such rebate.

 He obviously couldn't and said that is why he is there to help many Australians.

 I told him straight how would I know he is not a scammer trying to phish for my identity and I need to verify whether he is legit.

 He then retorted saying I probably don't and couldn't afford my own house and mortgage judging from the way I speak.

 I told him straight I am not interested and hang up straight away.

 A quick google confirms that I was right.

 Haha thats a new one , you can get abused and judged on the phone whilst getting scammed , its almost like 2 for 1.

 Next time you think its a scam , either scream down the phone in your highest voice ( not if you are at shops) or calmly in a official 

voice inform them you are detective such and such , from the fraud squad and request his full name.
