मलाई एउटा फोन आयो — ATO बाट हो भन्यो, कर तिरेको छैन भनेर पक्राउ गर्छौं भन्यो।

Officer

English

That's a very common scam. The ATO never threatens arrest over the phone. Did you give them any personal information?

मैले TFN भनिदिएँ। अब के गर्ने?

Officer

English

Contact the ATO immediately on 13 28 61 and tell them your TFN may be compromised. Also contact IDCARE on 1800 595 160 for identity theft support.

If you gave bank details, contact your bank urgently. They can put a hold on your account. Change your passwords immediately.

यस्तो ठगीबाट कसरी जोगिने?

Officer

English

Never give personal information to unexpected callers. Government agencies won't threaten you by phone. When in doubt, hang up and call the agency directly using the number on their official website.
