We help Australian Government entities deal with unseen and unchecked fraud.
Scammers have been sending emails pretending to be the Commonwealth Fraud Prevention Centre.
To check if the government website or email is genuine, make sure its address ends in ‘.gov.au’
It’s important to remember that the Centre will never ask you to disclose personal or banking information.
If you receive an email that looks suspicious please do not click on any links or respond to the email.
See the Find where to report fraud page for more information on how to report scams.
