Australia Reverse Phone Lookup

Said I was owed money from banks told them to send me a cheque

This is a scam and people need to be warned! I also got a call from an Indian stating they are from the Reclaim Expert Department where they represent the Australian Federal Government. They said that upon investigations on several ''Big Banks'' my account was overcharged with $5248 of illegal bank fees and that the government are willing to refund this money back to me. The scary part is that they knew all my contact numbers (home & mobile), my address (even though my home number is private and not listed in the directory), they knew my Full Name, my DOB and the bank I use!!! They wanted to know if I preferred a direct bank deposit or a cheque? I said 'cheque' ...
Then the caller gave me my reference number and asked me to contact her manager on 0280113830 and the manager will organise the refund.
So I proceeded to call the Manager named Jacklyn, and she was also of Indian Accent. 'Jacklyn' continued with the same explanation stating she had my file and verified my details. Then she continued to convince me to go ASAP to the nearest Australia Post and do a Western Union transfer for $199 to their 'so called lawyer' (Bhavna Sharma) who worked on my file from Delhi, India because the Federal Government uses offshore lawyers due to cheaper costs!!! Hahaha
It doesn't end yet... I probed and probed further! 'Jacklyn' then said to call her when Im at Australia Post and take my ID with me, and she would guide me through the transfer...i was being as nice as possible, but they were getting more and more aggressive!!
She said that if I delayed the Western Union transfer than my cheque will be delayed... Oh in which a Richard Smith would deliver the Cheque to my door within 40 mins-2 hours after the payment is made to Western Union!!!
Then I started to hesitate and hung up the phone!
It didn't end there... I was then continued to receive threatening phone calls from another Indian named 'John' who was apparently the higher manager of the department further trying to convince me why this should be so important to me and that I should trust them as they work hand on hand with the government and that he will personally ensure the $5248 is given to me by the end of the day!
The pressure to pay them continued and prank calls to my home phone and mobile also got more on the day. I then called Western Union, my local police, the ACCC scam watch and my bank and reported the incident. These con artists are very dangerous and aggressive! Please be aware and careful! The second you receive their call, just hang up the phone!!!

They are scamming innocent people stating they are from Reclaim Expert Department from the Federal Government, where they are a privately owned organization. Explaining to people where financial banking institutions have illegally charged fees onto people's accounts and now the federal government are reimbursing this back $4000-$5248. Catch is a lawyer fee of $180-$199 needs to be paid at Australia Post via western union to Delhi, India. People will never see this reimbursement and Western Union cannot trace the payment.
