Total scam. I called them back, and they answered that they were the IRS and was rude. I got rude back and ended up laughing and talking to the guy for 5 minutes about the scam. He said, "when its a 40 million dollar a year business, it's hard not to do this." Ended up being a nice guy....but its a scam.

Received call on my cell phone yesterday. I let it go to voice mail, since the number was not familiar coming from Virginia.
The message was from a person identifying himself as Danny Walter from IRS, with same message as John's posting dated 8 May.
Having heard on the news of the scam, I wanted to play with them a bit.
I called the 571-222-2914 number back from a different phone than my cell phone, and got a different person than Danny that answered. When I asked to talk to Danny Walter, I was asked if I was calling from the phone number I received the Danny's voice message on. I questioned him back as to why that's important to know. He repeated the question. When I replied back that IRS should not need this information, he hung up !
I received 3 calls within 2 hours from this number. "Danny Walters" left 2 messages (I let all calls go to voicemail) similar to those that have been reported above. Obviously a scam.
This is definitely a scam and the guy answering is a pervert. I am sure an IRS agent would not tell someone that they want to get them pregnant. I had to cuss him out and threatened to take the fake voicemail and his number to the police.
Wen i got 1st msg i called Back no answer. Then the 2nd msg he identified self as officer danny walters from irs so i googled officer danny walters and came across real stories of an officer danny walters shot in neck along with these scam reports so definately a scam. Stupid and i thot i had no life.
