Kimberley flood scams

Scammers often emerge in the wake of natural disasters to try and steal money from donors and the intended recipients. It is important to report any scams online to WA ScamNet or call 1300 30 40 54 so we can warn consumers and get fake pages shut down as soon as possible.

Used vehicle buyers are also being warned to carry out thorough checks with the risk of flood-damaged vehicles from the Kimberley being sold on the WA market.
