PERSON CALLING HIMSELF EDWARD SMITH POSES A GOVERNMENT AGENT, SPEAKING WITH A HEAVY ACCENT AND ON A POOR CONNECTION. SAYS THAT I WILL BE ARRESTED WITHIN 25 MINUTES UNLESS I PAY $914 FOR VIOLATION ON MY TAX RETURN. WHEN I CONFRONT HIM WITH THIS ONLINE SEARCH RESULTS HE HANGS UP.
Asian accent, hard to understand stated he was from CID or IRS. Asked to speak to his supervisor. Another Asia accent just as hard to understand. I hung up.
Just got the same call saying they was with the IRS and that someone filed a fraudulent a tax return using my husband SS # and there was a warrant for his arrest and of course they wanted his ID information. I called and reported to my local police and they confirmed it is a scam. I was told that IRS will never call you they always use the US Mail.
They called and the guy had an accent and pretended to represent the IRS and said something about error in taxes and a warrant for his arrest. he called the police department and said disregard. Don't listen to these people it's all a big scam!!
