There's a few says to locate you TFN (https://community.ato.gov.au/s/article/a079s0000009GnBAAU/keeping-track-of-your-tax-file-number). We don't send sensitive information via email so if you can't find it you may need to call us (https://www.ato.gov.au/about-ato/contact-us#:~:text=Overseas%20enquiries%20%E2%80%93%20general). However, your ex-employer should have a record of your TFN from your TFN declaration form - I don't want to accuse someone of attempting to scam you but please confirm it is your ex-employer and their story is legitimate before giving out your TFN.
