Do not trust myGov messages

You should never click on a link in an email purported to be from MyGov.

.

Criminals are ingenious in ways to defraud unsuspecting internet users – now a huge majority of the population.  We are forced by the government to use myGov, despite its security shortcomings.

An article by David Penberthy in Sunday Herald Sun of 25 May 2025 again highlights our significant concerns about the forced use of a government on-line service.

The article reports that taxpayers accounts are being hacked with refunds stolen and no doubt with untold damage to their future financial security.

The government crucified Optus in September 2022 for similar breaches – will they be as aggressive to themselves?  Response so far, have to put the blame on the taxpayers – disgraceful!

We can do no more than keep warning – do not use reply links and do not use myGov, unless you have no choice.  As you know, every communication with Australian Taxation Office can be via a tax agent, and with Centrelink via a Registered Agent.
