The Department of Transport is receiving multiple calls from the general public stating that they have just missed a call from the Department of Transport. 

The call was not made from the Department of Transport, it’s a Government impersonation scam and one of the main ones we are seeing is the “money owed to the ATO”, it gains momentum around tax time each year. 

If you receive a call it may potentially be a scam call, and you can report the issue via the Scamwatch website.

Further information about the Government impersonation scams can also be found via the Scamwatch website.
