Another MyGov scam

The lesson, of course, is never click on a link in an SMS or email even if a friend sent it.

Give away is the email address newsletter@naicepot.site and it went to a business email address which isn’t linked to the ATO/MyGov.

The link goes to the URL on jeremyknox a UK website.

myGov never actually includes a link in any emails - although the ATO has not yet heard of best practice and provides a heap.

Even when advising that I had changed my authentication method, myGov gave me a number to call. No links.
