Two Sydney men accused of impersonating public officials including federal police officers to steal more than $17,000 from a victim will face court.
Australian Federal Police alleges the men were part of a fraud syndicate that contacted the victim in October last year, claiming to be officials representing the AFP and also from government payments agency Services Australia.
It is alleged they deceived the victim into transferring money and providing them with personal information.
Police say the syndicate stole more than $17,000 from the victim in total.
Officers executed search warrants in the Sydney suburb of Rosehill on Friday.
Two Rosehill men, aged 27 and 26, were arrested and charged with committing an offence for the benefit of an organisation.
The charge holds a maximum penalty of seven years' imprisonment.
The pair were expected to face Parramatta Local Court on Saturday.
