WE'RE MAKING AUSTRALIA A HARDER TARGET FOR SCAMMERS.

To achieve this, we focus on raising awareness about recognizing, avoiding, and
reporting scams. The new National Anti-Scam Centre collaborates with government
agencies, law enforcement, and the private sector to share information from scam
reports, disrupt and prevent fraudulent activities, and help you recover your
funds.
