Unfortunately there are people who are way too trusting who fall for this scam. If the person is gullible enough to believe them, they send the person to the store to buy gift cards and then ask the person for the number on the gift cards and they steal all of their cash. I'm not talking hundreds, I'm talking tens of thousands. I know first hand that there are people out there who fall for this scam. These scum sucking leaches prey on the elderly and I am aware of at least one person who got hit for $9,700 because she was so frightened that she was going to jail. PLEASE, even though you may be smart enough to google it, our parents and grandparents may not think to do this so pass this information along to everybody you know. The IRS will never ever call you and ask you to load gift cards with large amounts of cash to pay off a debt. NEVER!!!!
My husband received a call from this number yesterday. The woman on the phone told him he was guilty of tax fraud and would be "going to jail in the next 30 minutes for at least 90 days without bail or bond". Seriously?!? How stupid do these people think we are?!
Got a call from 201-643-7930 left a message saying he was officer Johansson and we needed to call back, I called back it went to voice mail but box was full.
I got a call from this guy yesterday. He even threatened my life. So now I've been blowing his phone up. I've talked to Derek Williams, Eric foster, Michael Collins, David Williams, all of which are the same person. I've put maybe 400 calls through his phone. Dude is an idiot.
