Reporting Centrelink fraud

Each year millions of dollars in taxpayers’ money is lost due to fraud against health and welfare services and payments.

The Australian Government Services Fraud Tip-off Line provides people with a place to report suspected fraud against Medicare, Centrelink and Child Support programs.

Most people are honest and use Government services fairly, but if you have information about someone who is misusing these services, please contact us.

You can remain anonymous, and the information you provide will assist in ensuring the services support those who really need them.

Call the Australian Government Services Fraud Tip-off Line on 131 524.
