Got a call from this number on 2/2/16, it scared the heck out of me. Some how the connection got lost, I called the official IRS 800 number, they said nothing about me was out of the ordinary and to report this "phishing scam" to the department of the treasury, I did, and I would urge all of you do the same.
Called at 12:20 PM 1/29/15. Background noise was BAD. When I ask the man to repeat who he was looking for they hung up. I called the number back and could not understand the person that answered he had some foreign accent. After several attempts to clarify who they were I was finally told it was the Federal Court House. I keep asking what they wanted, they then place me on hold. Nice music. I hung up.
Left a message on home phone saying that there was a IRS tax fraud or tax evasion issue to call back immediately called back on cell phone they answered Criminal Investigation Division the first time and hung up on me, the second time they answered Federal Bureau of Investigations and hung up on me again when I asked them who exactly they were calling my number for, the third time they answered the phone IRS total scammers who try to use fear to intimidate people. Ridiculous should be reported to the authorities in their area and arrested however they are probably in India not in Cape Coral.
Received two calls this morning. Left message re tax fraud...etc. Caller, probably taped, had an Indian accent with some slight British twang. Guys...the IRS NEVER CALLS. If they want you, you will receive a letter thru the U.S. Postal Service. However, these scammers have made tons of money...so the IRS does want you to report them on their (IRS) website, which I will be doing.
