11 November 2026 – Be cautious of the fraudulent WhatsApp profile below. Fraudulent calls are being made to taxpayers regarding outstanding debt.
The SARS Commissioner does not phone individual taxpayers about payments. Any such call is a scam.
SARS will never ask for your passwords, one-time PINs (OTPs), banking PINs or eFiling login details by phone, email, SMS or social media.
Taxpayers are encouraged to use official channels to check if they have a legitimate tax debt or notice.
Report any suspicious calls or emails to [email protected] or call the SARS Anti-Corruption Hotline at 0800 00 2870.
