This is an Indian based scam. Ignore it and report it. These people are nothing but thieves.

Same as above. Told that I was owed money etc. I was advised to go to closest Centrelink office. I rang Centrelink as thought that it was a scam, which it is.

Received a call saying I hadn't answered letters sent out and my file had been sent to Canberra. Contacted Centrelink direct and they advised me that it was a scam and if ever in doubt ask the caller to put a note on the record and then call Centrelink direct on one of the numbers on their website, do not call the numbers given by the caller.

My elderly mother was called by this number about Centrelink owing her pension money. Unfortunately she called back a few days later and because they answered the phone as "Dept of Human Services - Centrelink, she thought it legit and gave out personal info. Since confirmed as a scam to get people's pensions diverted to an alternate bank account. A FRAUD

Received an automated recording saying that it was Centrelink and that I owed them money. Despite repeated letters they had sent, I had not answered, therefore my file was being sent to Canberra. If I phoned this number I would be able to sort it out. I phoned this number and spoke to a female with an accent who wanted all my details. I did not give her my security number. She said that she could not open my file without it. I said I would go to a Centrelink office and sort out. She said I could sort out there. I rang Centrelink on their number and noticed that there was a long wait and a few little differences with their call waiting. I spoke to someone after some time. He said I do not owe money and there have been no letters issued. He said Centrelink never do recorded messages on the phone. If you hear one then hang up straight away it is a hoax.

Initial call was a recorded message supposedly from Centrelink stating an application number and with this phone number. Subject was pension backpay. When I returned the call a female with an accent, posing as Centrelink dept. asking all the appropriate security questions. In the end they said there was no issue and it must have been a mistake.
