Treasury Dept claiming violations and tax were filed incorrectly. Do I want to take care of it now, that I should have received documentation. When I refused to comply I was told a Sheriff would contact me. I was called back by another person claiming they were the sheriff I told them to speak to my lawyer..
They called me as well told me I owed $2,000 and I had to pay now. They said they are the US government, and they have a tracking device on my phone and they're going to come and arrest me in 45 minutes.
Caller said he was from the US Treasury and that I was in serious financial trouble, serious enough that I should have my lawyer call, blah blah blah. Ended the call with "Have a pleasant day." Really?! First of all, the number he called is not the same one I provide on my Federal returns. Secondly, I'm an accountant and I know how to file my returns accurately. Most importantly, the IRS does not make telephone calls. Sad that people actually fall for this scam.
I work at the IRS and this idiot calls my cell phone! It's all fake, just a way to get people to give them money! Don't believe any of it. IRS sends letters to the address on your tax return if there is anything wrong.
Called and said they were with the Treasury Department and I cheated on my taxes. Told me I owed them $4500.00 and were going to take legal action against me. After they hang up a Sheriff would be at my door in 45 minutes to arrest me. I advised them I would have the Attorney General contact them if they called me back and then they hung up. How stupid do they think people are?
