I see that there is also a new explosion of "messages" from Gina et al. re "investment opportunities" in the in box.

Look out for a very realistic Australia Post scam email which even has a tracking number. Check the tracking number direct on the Australia Post site if you want to find out if the email is genuine.

Looks enough to go into panic look by pressing the link.
MyGov does not do that.
In my experience, they tell you to go into your account mailbox by logging on. I would think that is something most people understand.
It's too late to say woops once one presses the link. Stop and think.

I have received several of these My Gov scams. Also beware of DocuSign email scams. I have had several saying that I have to sign something along re a payment to Paypal . I have contacted Paypal who were very helpful but had trouble contacting Docusign, eventually reaching someone after a lot of button pressing.
 
I've had three this week from different senders, but I can click 'Report' and they are reported as scams, removed and blocked.

There are so many scam emails coming through from well known companies and MyGov in particular. Always block and remove but still they come..

good idea as we all have to check ourselves before we click on a link just to be safe and sure
