Sort of, although Pom is at least a century older as Seppo was coined during world war 2. It comes from the rhyming slang Yank to Septic Tank to Seppo.
It came from the swagger of the US service men in Aus during the war and the implication that many of them are full of shit.
Ah, that's great, ha ha. Thanks :-)
