Who called from 2012855214

This is a new one that's simply a variation of the "IRS Lawsuit" scam.

They try to sound just as menacing only the recording claims to be the "Treasury" which would be taking no such action to begin with...

They must be making a killing with these scams as they have multiplied like rabbits.

It's sad to think there are elderly or fools that get taken in by these people.

Do consider getting a call blocking device or phone.. You can google them and many are around $40.00 or so.If its a cell phone, some already have call blocking, if not, there are free apps on the web that will work for some. You can google this. If you have a smart phone, there is a free app called call control. Iphones appear to have apps also. Another one is called Mr. Number.

nomo robo is an amazing service and it's free...does a wonderful job of screening most calls

Except for one thing, sadly they do not work with all telephone company's. In most cases its just not available to those of us who would like to have it. Thus a call blocking device is our best resource and only recourse at this time.

3:30 AM and got the same call!  Woke my wife and I up.  I do have a call blocker and this number went in as soon as I hung up.  When is our gutless Congress going to step up and do something about these moron scammers.  They better hope I never run into them or I'll do what Congress doesn't have the guts to do!
