Just got a call from 202-230-0205 telling me they were with the IRS and a lawsuit was filed against me. I hung up and they called right back. I had my daughter call them from a blocked line and asked them who they were and they refused to talk to her and hung up. This is clearly a SCAM because no federal agency would refuse to disclose who they are when you call them. Also the IRS is required by law to send out formal notifications by mail in regards to any possible actions against you.
Total scam!! it was clearly from a foreign country. I was told I was going to get arrested and would have to post $75,000 bond. They were nice enough to reduce the fine from $6600 to half if I paid. So I told them to send the Sheriff and arrest me!
Received pre-recorded call today from 202-230-0205 Claimed from IRS "last warning. IRS is filing lawsuit against you"
Heard it on my answering machine. Apparently, they had a workday today, as I see, all comments above are from today too. Don't get fooled though. It is very well documented and known scam, which is around already for sometime.
Do these people EVER realize that people are smart enough to know that these types of calls are scams and not to fall for them? If so, why don't they give up?
