This is a scam from some Indian scammer they want you to pay $190 to a western union mob to receive supposedly $5,000.00 to good to be true, hell yeah

Got this call at about 3:30 today 31/10/2012 I was going to get $5000 from the government because of over charging on my utilities :-) yeh right as if any government would admit to over charging. Bugga $5000 would have been handy though .

My mother received a similar call from someone stating that the ATO was going to deposit $5K into her account today (1 November 2012) at around lunch time. All she needed to do is provide this idiot with her banking details. The scary part was that they knew her name, address and her DOB! She still didn't fall for it and told them where to go before slamming the phone on them. Don't be messing with my momma!

bingo!  I got a call too - $5K again.  I was supposed to call that number back for more info (thats prob where they woulda hit me up for banking info - but i aint called back).
But yeah - not good that they already had my name/addy/phone.

Yes I just received the same call and was told I would get a $5000 refund for overcharges from the bank, then he asked what bank I'm with...!! Hello!!!!!!

Idiots! How come they don't get shut down?!

Got a call from an Indian guy claiming to be from Australian Federal Government letting me know I had over $5000 coming via cheque for overpayment of utilities...

Refund from overcharged bank accounts. Addressed by name on call.

my wife got call from this number today 29/11/12 and same things as all of u have. dodgy

Some guy Michael George just call me and said the government Reclaim department of Justice will pay me $5248 for charges the bank overcharge me!!!!   What a scam...

I got a call today 3:30 PM Dec 5, 2012. Same thing. A woman with a heavy Indian accent said that she was calling from the Australian Justice Department and that "my bank" ( no mention of the name of that bank) had over charged my account and would be receiving $5,300 plus. She seemed to have my address, phone number and date of birth which is scary in it's self. She provided that info. I did not give it to her just said that it was correct ( maybe a big mistake!)
Then asked me what bank I wanted the check from. I said I didn't care. I assumed she was trying to get the name of the bank I am with. They picked Commmonwealth. Then was told I needed to ring a manager Pamela Peterson and quote an application number then she would discuss a delivery fee, very dodgy!! Then someone would deliver the check in person to my door. Not by mail but by person! When I queried if they would have proper ID from the Australian Justice Dept including photo ID she replied yes. I then said I thought this was very suspect as I could hear many operators in the background and I could barely understand what she was saying as she had a very heavy Indian accent. She infacticly said it was "ALL LEGAL" I then tried to call "Pamela Peterson" At first it rang out. Then I rang again a woman picked up. I asked her what company she worked for and she dodged the answer. Then I asked her her name and she told me "Pamela Petersen" I then asked more questions and she became flustered and said she was on another call and could I call back in 15 minutes. I came across this site in the meantime and within 4 minutes of hanging up with "Pamela Petersen" I received a phone call from a "Pamela Peterson" who had received a missed call from my number"!!! I told I had been on the net and had seen this was a scam and would be reporting the operation. Bloody hell!!!!! They are braisen as hell! Anyone know how we can shut them down or who we can tell or go to for help?

Just read your post, and like everyone else on here my Dad received a call today (10/12/12) saying that they are from the "Government" and that they want to issue a cheque for $5k...the catch was that he had to go to the post office and write out a western union form to transfer a small fee of $299. He got suspicious when they told him that when he is at the Post Office to have his mobile on him and they would call him to confirm exactly the details to write down. These scum are targeting people like my dad (pensioners) who have no idea about spam callers like this. He was even given a report number "RR28". When he said to call back so I could speak with them they gave him this number. We need to stop these idiots from calling. I am sure there would be a small minority of people who actually do as they say.

I just recieved a phone call with the same thing, a Indian women who knew all my details, my address,phone number and DOB. She told me the Government had overcharged my bank account and they owed me $5248 and wanted to know what bank I was with (I didn't tell her), and she said that I will recive the cheque in 2 days by a courier. She gave me the 0280074756 number and RR28 reference.
I have not rung this number so I don't know the outcome as I knew it was a scam.
This happened Wed. 12-12-2012 at approx 3.50 pm.

Same as above.  Same phone number and reference number as Steve.   I checked out this site as was sure it was a scam and sure enough I've saved myself a phone call.

Same as everyone else on here! My mum was called and given this number and the same reference number RR28.

Seriously hope no one is caught out by these people!!

I recieved a call today saying i would receive over $5000 for over charging my bank fees
but then i was told to go to my local post to pay $290 i lawyer fees before i receive the cheque in the mail for starters im on a disability pension so i can,t afford to pay $290 def a scam

My mum got his call today, 5 minutes ago at 2:40. They claimed they were from the Federal Government and she is odd $5000 plus.  Allshe had to do is call this no 02 800 745454 and quote reference NRD631 and they will give oct her out the cheque.  I advised her not to call.  Please stop these people scamming our seniors. Anna Wilson

We  just got the same call today using the very same reference number you have.
Also anything money coming from any government agency via a check would be from the Reserve Bank anyway. Only difference was we weren't given any names at all.

Will be contacting the Federal Police Dept to put in a formal complaint I think.

They actually rang us back twice yesterday because my hubby hadn't rung the number. She refused to speak to me though, got quite agitated and hung up on me when I kept asking what she wanted to speak to him about.    

Don't think we'll be hearing back from them some how .......

I received the same call stating that it was the federal police and I was to receive $5000 from overpayment of credit cards. The scary thing for me was I have a daughter overseas and the call was from overseas stating my name address and date of birth and asking if they were speaking to the right person before informing me about their deceptive money! I was so scared it was something bad that had happened.

I tried to call police but could not get through at the time.
