Scams

AusPayNet has become aware that its name is being used in a payment scam falsely claiming:
 

The vendor of goods advertised on Gumtree is informed that ‘AusPayNet’ is holding cleared funds from the buyer covering the costs of the goods plus shipping costs. ‘AusPayNet’ states it will release the funds to the vendor when AusPayNet receives confirmation that the shipping costs have been paid via MoneyGram to a named individual.
 

AusPayNet does not hold funds nor does it clear funds, and is not involved in any way in these transactions. We have contacted the relevant authorities and the organisations involved.
 
If you receive any such communication, we suggest you contact ScamWatch or the police.
