Scams like these

Well I got an email from the ATO yesterday. Seems they think there is something shifty with Mygov.
But the email was from a gmail account and the heading was "Dear user your refund has been approved.

So I have not lodged my tax return yet. Didn't pay any tax so not expecting a refund. And since when has the Tax Dept been calling us dear user.

And since when has the Tax Dept been calling us dear user.

At the very least, they should be addressing it to "Dear Leader"

“Dear bloodbag” … ?

Yeah… nah.

I booked a restaurant for a group last week using seven rooms. I've received two emails from them - one thanking me for coming and one asking for a review. Neither of them have an option to opt out or unsubscribe - is anyone aware if this is a requirement

If you dont plan to use them again, esp with emails, block and usually in email, that works.
SMS is a bit more problematic with some phones, as though the phone wont ring from that number, it will still show up as in blocked calls, so it would take a few secs from your life to delete the #.
At least that is what happens with my Samsung phone.
Have least 50 phone #s blocked now.
