Has one (sms) from Centrelink (!!!) and I am not even on benefits, none of any type, saying I am to be paid $705.83.something, and my next reporting date is such and such.
(((Centrelink Reporting Information: Date to be paid 24/03/2025 Amount $705.83 Next reporting due 04/04. Rereipt no. xx_xx_))).
It did not have a link to it, so am not sure what the aim of it is.
Ie, there is no website to psish to, ...
Maybe their aim is to scare people.
Looks like the short code trick, maybe they are showing how smart they are/are they to onsend sms which have "supposedly" come from Centrelink.

This email actually looks quite professional ... only thing is I don't have a pCloud account, and the IP address is not mine, though I blanked the last part anyway.

This is the second one of these my wife has got in the last few days :-

The top of the e-mail claimed that the message was sent by "Docusign" included a link to click on to review the document - not copied here. But the rest of the message is supposedly from PayPal.

I am still getting fake mail from Centrelink and MyGov every few days asking me to click on a link.

Both of us have been getting Docusign spam all about our Pay Pal accounts. Mine are easy as I don't have a pay pal account.
The wording is virtually the same as in the previous post by @Major .

I have received several Docusign emails all related to my non-existent PayPal account. The first impression is they might be genuine (from previous experience) but there are several features that give them away - particularly when you do not use PayPal.

This email from Westpac appears genuine and would convince some of its legitimacy.
I have never been a Westpac customer.
