These guys have been calling me incessantly. After speaking at length with the first young man, he finally broke down and told me that it was a scam! I encouraged him to go to school. He said that he had already been to school and had graduated but couldn't find any other job. I told him that it was obvious that he was not happy doing that kind of work because he would have moved on to the next victim by then. I told him that if he found a job helping people rather than victimizing them, that he would feel better about himself and his family would be proud of him. He said that he knew I was right but he had to continue there until he could find something better. Waste of time though, of course, as the calls continue. The next call was from a woman who told me that she needed to speak with my husband about his pending arrest. I told her that thanks to the previous call, we had been alerted and my husband was already in jail. I told her how much I appreciated her kindness in informing us of the looming arrest and since I had to give all my money to the police, I had nothing left to give to her. She immediately hung up. Now I'm just getting non-stop voice mails from "Officer James Anderson".
This was another scammer claiming to be from the IRS alleging that the person they are calling has unpaid taxes and they threaten that they are having a warrant issued for my arrest. Check out the IRS web page and you can see they don't do that. IRS contacts via US post office first. The callers never mention who they are calling. Total scam. Beware
Exact same scenario as outlined above! Man with an Indian accent left a voice message identifying himself as Officer James Anderson, from the Tax and Audit Department of the IRS, regarding an illegal tax evasion and that they were about to issue a warrant for my/our arrest, but he never identifies WHO the call is for.....only to call 571-290-2027 for more information about the case.
Thank you to the people that posted above. Seeing the same exact call details has confirmed in my mind that this is simply a scam type of junk call....and I will ignore it.
