Hi everyone,

Hope you’re having a good day.

I want to share an important issue that has personally affected my family and impacts thousands of Australians. Recently, we fell victim to relentless spamming and scam related fraud, which resulted in significant financial loss. Beyond the financial impact, this experience has been emotionally draining and has shown just how sophisticated and widespread these scams have become.

Many Australians face similar situations every year, and current laws and penalties often do not provide enough protection or deterrence. That’s why I’ve started a petition calling for stronger laws and stricter penalties, including jail time for offenders, to better protect individuals and families from these harmful practices.

If you believe scammers should face real consequences and want to help prevent others from suffering the same experience, please take a moment to read, sign, and share this petition widely:

Your support in spreading the word can make a real difference and help raise awareness about this urgent issue.

Thank you so much for your support.

Kind regards,

Jerusha
