I have got telephone calls from 323-285-8982 mentioning they are from Dept of Legal Affairs, California and this is a
verbal notice regarding a pending legal action against me. I called back that number and they clarified that there is a legal action pending from IRS regarding a pending tax payment in 2007! and bring your criminal Lawyer ... etc.
I contacted the IRS and they said nothing is wrong with my account.
Called today at 3:15pm. A man named "David Johnson", (very heavy accent, not very easy to understand), left message that he is from Dept. Of Legal Affairs and needs to discuss "a very important issue".
Advised me there was a legal action against me but kindly wished me a "blessed day".
"This is Eileen Fernandez with the department of legal affairs at U.S. Treasury. This is a notification for Tony in regards to some enforcement actions that have been started on your name. This is a notification for Tony in regards to some enforcement actions that have been started on your name. If for any reason you are busy to call back, I would suggest you to have your retain attorney do it for you. Constantly avoiding us might end up into a legal mess for you. I hope you will take the time and call me back. Until then have a blessed day and God bless you, " said the caller.
This is the same call I got as I previously reported. As the report goes on it states that this is a hoax that uses scare tactics to try to get personal financial info from unsuspecting people.
Report the Calls to the real IRS here:
•report the incident to the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration at 800-366-4484.
•You can also file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission at FTC.gov. Add "IRS Telephone Scam" to the comments in your complaint.
