Who called from 2063192011

They say their from the irs and I am being sued by them and to call them back to resolve the problem. Do Not believe them. Its a scam. They will ask that you put money on a prepaid card and then call them back and give the numbers  on  the card. Call your local police to report it. IRS will sent you a letter before they call you.

I got the same call this morning. This is terrible what these people are doing.

I got two calls from this number saying that IRS is suing me.

The IRS does not initiate communications
with a "cold call" to unsuspecting people.
Instead
The IRS always sends a letter, first!

The IRS never initiates a contact via phone.
They always send a snailmail first.

I received a call from them at 8:15a.m.  and totally panicked since I wasn't even fully awake.  They said I was being sued and that there was a warrant out for my arrest and that I would have to appear in criminal court in Washington D.C.   They said I had to go to the bank and get the money ($3070.00) or I would be arrested within 45 minutes.  Not knowing what to do or think I called the local police who assured me it was a scam.  Even though I told the callers that I knew they were scamming me, they tried to call me 2 more times.
