(02) 8310 5582 - 0283105582: Local landline number in Sydney, NSW 1001

Got a call this morning from Officer Geoffrey Morgan of the ATO. So he's still at it. I just hung up. Now I wish I'd stayed on the line. I needed a good laugh.

Looks like Jeff or Geoff Morgan is at it again.

Same as all the below comments.

This time he was using 02 61 003319.

I did not bother to call back.

Today our business received a call from Jeff Morgan who identified himself as being from the ATO. He left a message with reception staff to call him back urgently.

I rang the return number of 02 6188 5608. I immediately bombarded him with questions- who are you, where are you calling from, how did you get this number, what time is it in Canberra now and which tax file number of mine are you calling about?

He identified himself as Officer Jeffrey Morgan, Taxation Officer - ID 800614. He said he was calling from the ATO headquarters in Canberra and then our line disconnected. I think I scared him off.....

Jeffrey Morgan has a new number got a call today on 0261403490.

He claims we are I trouble for tax fraud and evasion and the local police have been informed. I didn't call him back.

Checked my answering machine on returning home to find a message from a 'geoffrey Morgan" from the Canberra office of the ATO. It basically stated I am under threat of tax evasion and not to disregard the message but to call him back on 02 61528604. I've deleted the message.

Another Call from 02 61528644 with regard same as previous calls from Geoffrey Morgan claiming tax evasion.

Very very rude person.

I just reported Geoffrey morgan to scamwatch for pretending to work for taxation office he says he is from a.c.t and is using a new number 02 61003201, when my mum said to send her out information about it in the mail he started yelling that shes going to jail and that everything she says will be recorded.

Same ... My mother-in-law got the same call, she was so confused and scared.

He was so rude and demanding..

I called him back.. Besides having her name wrong, he couldn't answer my questions and hung up on me.. Then wouldn't answer my call.

Had no other details except the phone number and surname.

Had no idea about my ATO tax.

He needs to be Taken Down..

This idiot called jeoff morgan new my mothers name and told her to pay her tax or that she was going to jail and that he was sending the police on her, my poor 72 year old mother was distressed.. When she esked questions he got really abusive.. What a jerk he will be fried at armageddon..

We received a call from the same number and same story as abive. Def a scam Jeffrey Morgan pretending to be from the Australian Taxation Office. Don't call back!!!

As soon as I told the guy he was a scam he started laughing and said 'Sweetheart, what are you going to do about it?' They're bad news.

We just received this call too. I actually had a message on the answering machine from a Jeffery Morgan.

After having heart failure I returned the call. But the moment I began asking the person I was speaking to questions that were too 'difficult' for them to answer, he got shirty and hung up on me.

It infuriates me that they would rather try to steal hard working people's money than go an earn their own.

If you receive a call like this, report it to Scamwatch at [link].

The call doesn't quite fit it into any of the categories of scams that Scamwatch has -- probably you could lodge it under the "jobs and investment" category.

We received this a call to our message bank from "Geoffrey Morgan" also. The contents of the call is the same as noted in the prior comments of others here. A copy of the call is still held by us.

I also received the same call as the others. Definitely a fake. It must be a crime to impersonate the Tax Office. Some of you have called the Tax Office. Have they said they plan to do anything, or have they suggested you call the police (or even federal police)?

We've received this call today and several times in recent weeks. It has to be a scam. For sure, the ATO would send a letter in the mail or via "mygov".

Happened to me to Beware of scam.

The same thing happened to us today. Guy who called himself Geoffrey Morgan left message on our phone saying he is representing Australian Taxation Evasion Office and that there a case against us for tax evasion and tax fraud and to call back urgently before the police is being notified. I called ATO, it's fraud!

Happened to us too, same message I.e.tax fraud and police were coming. Name used was geoffrey warburton and stated he was from Canberra. He even said at the end of the message "have a blessed day". We called back but no answer.

I suggest you lodge a complaint on the Do Not Call register website at [link].

I have also received a phone message from 02 8310 5582 from someone who claimed to be from the Australian Tax Office and claiming that I needed to return the call urgently before the police came after me for tax evasion and tax fraud. If you get a call like this do NOT return the call. If you want to call the tax office to check it out, use the numbers listed on the ATO website or in the phone book. The cops are definitely not coming after you. Again the man had a heavy accent. I believe he claimed his name was Jeffrey Morgan or something similar.

We just got this call as well.

I had exactly the same call today 19 June 2015.

As per a few other comments for a similar number... I received a phone call from this number - Geoffrey Morgan representing Australian Taxation Evasion Office, saying there was a case against us for tax evasion and tax fraud and to call urgently otherwise the police would come around. Strong accent, can't pick it. Eventually called the number, someone with the same accent. ATO said they send letters out in the first instance.
