Latest phishing scams

Refund email scam

This email scam tells you that we owe you a refund and gives you a link to claim the refund.

Vehicle licence (rego) email scam

The most common scam is an email saying your rego is due. It includes a button or link for you to renew online, which takes you to a fake website. That website may ask you for your payment details and your driver licence details.

Overdue tolls email scam

This email tells you that you have an overdue invoice to pay for “past tolls” and includes an attached invoice.
