Discover the fascinating world of cybersecurity with our special guest, Glenn Maiden, Director of Threat Intelligence at FortiGuard Labs, ANZ. From his beginnings in the mid-90s with the Department of Defence to his pivotal roles at the Australian Signals Directorate and the Australian Tax Office, Glenn offers a wealth of knowledge and insights as he discusses the evolution from traditional information security to modern cyber intelligence. He also sheds light on how his team at FortiGuard Labs collaborates on a global scale to protect customers from emerging threats.Today's digital landscape is riddled with complex cyber threats, and we unravel this intricate web with an engaging discussion on hyper-connectivity and its vulnerabilities. The conversation exposes the sophisticated tactics of cybercriminals, from nation-state actors to organised crime, and explores how anonymity and jurisdictional complexities provide them with strategic advantages. Yet, amidst this challenging terrain, there is optimism as advancements in cybersecurity measures are bolstering resilience, particularly in regions like Australia, where substantial investments are being made to combat emerging threats.As we navigate the volatile global environment, the conversation shifts towards protecting critical infrastructure and the proactive measures being championed by government initiatives like Australia's SOCI Act. We consider the alarming prospect of cyber-attacks as a precursor to conflict and discuss strategies to mitigate such risks, including the integration of AI and the importance of multi-factor authentication and smart access controls. The episode rounds out with an exploration of the convergence of cyber threats and misinformation, highlighting the role of cyber gangs and nation-state activities in election interference and the increasing threat of cyber-enabled misinformation, especially among the younger, more connected generations. Tune in for a compelling discussion that offers valuable insights into the future of digital safety.

Under the guise of funding OneSchool Global, the PBCC's leaders have quietly bilked $0.65 billion from their unsuspecting members since 2017. Rather than being used for education, this tax free bullion is stashed in multiple obscure private investment funds around the globe, and used by the tiny elite of ultra-rich PBCC church leaders to fund their own businesses ventures. Every year, the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church's “Global Funding Team” holds a “Strive” fundraiser to collect a further $250 million to add to the pot. Attendance at this Zoom fundraising event, while dressed in church attire, is compulsory for 100% of members, and they must keep their cameras on so that local brethren priests can see that they are attending, and monitor their reactions. The 54,000 assembled victims of this fraud are told a carefully crafted pack of outright lies to the effect that the Brethren's OneSchool Global desperately needs funds, that Vision Foundation is an endowment fund for this purpose, and that it generates an astonishing 20% return on investment. Get-a-Life exposes for he first time the shocking truth that Vision Foundation has actually been losing millions of dollars per year, and far from being an endowment fund, is just a handy source of ready cash for the corrupt Brethren elite. We also expose for the first time the “Campus Modernization Program” and the “Hall Standardization Program” further financial scams perpetrated by PBCC leadership to launder $100s of millions of tax-free dollars into their own bank accounts. Join us as we light up for the first time the Affinity Fraud of the Century, as the perpetrators desperately scramble to pull the maximum value from the scam before the Australian Tax Office's ongoing investigation closes it down for good.

Small Biz Matters: People, Policy, Purpose ~ Episode #237 Broadcast date: 18th June 2024 Host: Alexi Boyd, Small Business Advocate & Policy Advisor Guest: Will Day, Deputy Commissioner Small Business at Australian Taxation Office We are pleased to be joined on Small Biz Matters by those in government who are really at the coalface of supporting small business. Today we welcome Will Day, Assistant Commissioner in charge of small business at the Australian Tax Office. So why did we ask the ATO on the program you may ask? Well, as difficult as it may be, whilst small businesses struggle to keep their doors open in the current economic climate, it's also important that they continue to work on meeting their obligations. We all know that tax and compliance is difficult and unnecessary burden on small business but it is also critical ensuring that small businesses a vital role in the economy. But whilst we all struggle with compliance and making sure everything is in order there is a group of businesses who do the wrong thing; making it unfair and inequitable for the rest of us. The ATO takes a considered and careful approach when dealing with small businesses, doing their best to really understanding what they're going through. Critical to this is their relationship with the advisor community and associations who speak openly and frankly about what their small businesses; and how the policy burden can be better administered by the ATO to make the process as simple as possible. So let's have a listen to what Will Day has to say about the way they support, work with advisors, the latest digital developments on the ATO website and what they're doing to stamp out software that gives some small businesses and unfair advantage. PEOPLE - How does the tax office engage with the small business industry groups and associations to understand the needs of small businesses and the best way to support their members to meet their tax obligations? How important is it to engage with advisors, and is that a different conversation?  POLICY - What are your current priorities which the ATO developing with these groups to refine and make fit for purpose for small business? "The new Commissioner mentioned at the COSBOA summit the amount of collectable debt is now at over $50 billion. 65% of all collectable debt owed relates to small business and 74% of that relates to activity statements. What's your message to small businesses listening today who have a debt with the ATO and are not sure what they should do?" PURPOSE - How does the ATO work with other government departments and regulators to streamline processes and make it easier and lessen the reporting burden on small businesses? Are there any new tech developments in the pipeline? With over 25 years' experience in the Australian Taxation Office, Will Day has performed many senior roles leading its support to client experiences. As ATO Deputy Commissioner for Small Business, Will is focused on helping small business owners get things right from the start by making it easier to comply with their tax and superannuation obligations as well as helping to improve overall business literacy and skills through education.  Will has responsibility for delivering a program of work that is focused on collaborating with partners to design a digital-first approach to make it easier for small businesses meet their obligations. Will is also focused on making sure there is a level playing field for the vast majority of small businesses that do pay their fair share by looking closely at activities in the shadow economy.   Prior to his current role, Will had senior roles focused on improving the quality of the ATO's technical public advice and guidance as well as roles supporting the integrity of the tax and superannuation systems.

Do any of your business clients owe money to the Australian Tax Office? There is more than $50B of collectable tax debt to collect. 65% relates to small business so the answer is likely YES. There's a major change coming on interest deductibility which CA ANZ members need to know about. From July 1, 2025, the general interest charge and the shortfall interest charge will become non-deductible, increasing the cost of tax debt. It means businesses will have a strong incentive to obtain finance from banks instead of sitting on tax debt and they'll be looking to accountants for help. Senior Tax Advocate Susan Franks CA joins host Gillian Bowen to go through what's changing, what accountants can do to help their clients and where to find resources.

It's a church that preaches a hatred of people outside of its own flock. Women are treated as second-class citizens. And homosexuality is not tolerated.  So why does the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church have such extraordinary access to political power brokers? And does it actually perform the acts of charity that it says it does? For which it receives multi-millions of dollars in government funding and tax exemptions? Until last week, many remained questions without answers. That is, until the Australian Tax Office performed an astonishing raid on businesses owned by the church. Today, investigative reporter Michael Bachelard on the Plymouth Brethren Church, which has long flown under the radar, but is now being exposed to the light.Subscribe to The Age & SMH: https://subscribe.smh.com.au/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week, in a stunning sequel to Steve Simmons revelation of multi-million dollar tax fraud and money-laundering in New Zealand, over 120 Australian Tax Office (ATO) investigators conducted an unannounced “SWAT” type raid on the Exclusive Brethren's prestigious HQ in Sydney, and a dozen other brethren businesses and homes. The primary targets were the Universal Business Team (UBT) – the church's finance wing, OneSchool Global, who educates the cult's 9500 children, and Rapid Relief Team, (RRT) their PR operation. Rick Grosse, CFO of OneSchool global was interrogated and his phone was seized. Ron Arkcoll, MD of RRT, had both his home and business raided, and files, computers and phones were secured under police guard and removed from UBT HQ for further analysis. Damian Hastie, creator of the openandcandid.com investigative platform, sits down with the Get-a-Life team to give us an overview of the staggering wealth of the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church, and its labyrinth of interconnected businesses, trusts and charities through which billions of dollars are disseminated, ultimately enriching a tiny elite at the top of what Damien likens to a Ponzi Scheme. This podcast includes breaking news from our insider network about the ATO raid that goes well beyond what was reported in mainstream media, and a shocking image of a ritual led by cult leader Bruce Hales in his recent visit to the USA.

I'm taking a little breather over the new year, still in the background prepping some fun new episodes for you. So this week I'm bringing you not only a fan fave from a little earlier this year, but one of my own favorites. That's a write off. Isn't it? This one I step you through some of the nitty-gritty of business tax deductions, with a fun spin from our favourite Schitt's Creek character, David Rose. If you need some help demystifying business expenses and tax deductions (particularly in the Australian context), then you're in the right place.So, what exactly is this thing called a write-off? Well, friends, it's merely another name for a business expense or a tax deduction. Simply put, it's anything you purchase to cut down your profit or taxable income, giving you lower taxes. You could see it as a secret goodie bag for your business - but remember, it comes with some strings attached!The Australian Tax Office isn't playing around when it comes to write-offs. They've got three golden rules which I explain today:1. The purchase must be for your business, not personal use.2. If the purchase is for both business and personal use, you can only claim the business portion. 3. You need records as proof, and no, bank statements don't make the cut. You need tax invoices!Knowing the what and the how of deductions and business expenses is great, but it's pointless if you don't keep your tax invoices. Keeping those ATO-required records is your secret weapon. Without them, you could be shelling out more tax than you need to. Tax deduction eligibility will always depend on your unique business but to help you along, I'm sharing some common write-off categories that may be relevant to your situation. And while I know it's tempting to turn to Facebook groups or your best friend's aunt for advice, it's always best to get advice from a qualified professional to avoid any tax troubles. Enjoy this episode and I'll be back with you shortly with fresh content to get you on top of your bookkeeping matters.LINKSPrevious Episodes Mentioned:Do your (Tax) Invoices say the right thingsWhat happens when you don't keep accurate recordsConnect with Lisa Turner: Instagram:     @accountedforyouWebsite:         https://accountedforyou.com.au/

The Australian Tax Office is meant to be one of the most secure and forensic agencies in the country - we trust it to get things right.  But its vulnerabilities were exposed, after a criminal syndicate managed to steal more than $100 million of taxpayers' money.  Today, Four Corners reporter, Paul Farrell, takes us inside the biggest tax fraud in our history, and explains how it was exposed.  Featured:  Paul Farrell, investigative reporter, Four Corners, ABC TV and ABC iview 

The Australian Tax Office suspected that PwC used confidential information to help their big corporate clients get richer – seven whole years ago. But they did shockingly little about it. They didn't even share that information with government ministers. The reason, they say, is that their hands were tied – that bureaucratic rules kept them from exposing one of the biggest scandals in the history of our tax system. Today, chief political correspondent for The Saturday Paper, Karen Middleton on whether secrecy really should have kept the tax office from doing more.

Reporter Christopher Knaus explains to Laura Murphy-Oates how this case is a major test of Australia's whistleblower laws

We hear a lot today about building our personal brand on social media, about the need to be open and transparent online … not to mention that well-worn word — authentic!  How do we stand out on social media - especially LinkedIn, which as we all know, is a ‘professional' network, where showing up as your real self can be difficult for many people. Yet, we also know that dropping the veneer, getting out amongst it, taking people behind the scenes of your business or professional life - showing your personality and bringing your whole self to LinkedIn especially: this can work wonders in terms of building a profile and getting people to take notice of who you are, what you do and what you stand for: all hallmarks of professional personal branding.  In this episode, we hear from Joyce Ong who, from pretty much scratch, has gone from zero-to-hero in terms of her LinkedIn presence. It's a great story! Joyce is co-founder of TAX NUGGETS ACADEMY, which produces bite-sized training videos for SME accountants and tax advisors. She describes herself as an entrepreneur, content creator, disruptor, rebel against boring, and saviour from sucky training!  In this fun and informative conversation, Joyce explains how she lets it all out on LinkedIn - detailing the ups and downs of life as a startup entrepreneur - and how adhering to her policy of radical transparency on the platform has helped her not only stand out from the pack, but also grow her nascent enterprise. Joyce walks us through her story, from working as a consultant at the Australian Tax Office, to running her own training business. Along the way, she prioritised showing up as herself on LinkedIn, a process she found liberating, and unpacks the thinking behind her efforts on the social platform. During the course of the conversation, Joyce touches on: The importance of authenticity on LinkedIn, and why taking people behind the scenes of your professional life can really pay dividends in terms of attracting attention, building an audience and generating businessThe concept of radical transparency, and what it looks like in actionHow much time she spends creating content and responding to commentsDealing with negative comments on LinkedInEarned media opportunities that come from having a growing profileHow she juggles personal brand vs business brand The success she's having with her early efforts with LinkedIn paid ads Joyce also squeezes in a shout-out for a role she's got going at Tax Nuggets Academy (digital marketing manager), and asks - and gets - some in-the-moment advice around podcasting!

We know our superannuation is important - how much super we have essentially dictates how well we'll retire. But how many of us actually know how it works? It's complicated, and if we're being honest, there's a lot more to think about day-to-day than our super. But new figures show unpaid superannuation in WA has blown out to $3.4 billion over six years. This astonishing amount has been uncovered by an analysis of Australian Tax Office data by peak body Industry Super Australia. To unpack all this is chief executive of Industry Super Australia Bernie Dean.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I'm so excited to discuss my absolute favourite bookkeeping topic - GST. It's absolutely essential that you grasp the ins and outs of GST to ensure you pay the right amount to the Australian Tax Office.
