How to Spot a Fake Tax Agent.
Tax scams are common in Australia. Use this checklist on any tax agent, not just us.
They’re on the TPB Register
No listing means they can’t legally charge to lodge your return.
Fees Are Clear Upfront
Be wary of anyone who takes a cut of your refund and won’t say how much.
Refund Goes to Your Account
It should never go to the agent’s bank account. Only yours.
They Sign the Return
A real agent signs off on the return and is accountable for it.
Never share your myGov login or password.
A genuine tax agent will never ask for it. Tax Falcon links to the ATO securely and never needs your myGov password.
