How to spot a fake government website in Australia

  • Australian government sites end in gov.au. Sign in to myGov at my.gov.au only.
  • Services Australia and the ATO do not send links in SMS or email asking you to sign in.
  • Check Scamwatch (scamwatch.gov.au) for current government impersonation scams.

myGov (my.gov.au) is the Australian Government's sign-in that links services such as Centrelink, Medicare, the ATO and the NDIS in one account.

How do I spot a fake Australian government website?
