Received a call from this number, stating I was being charged with tax evasion. Asked if I have an attorney's number on hand. Very heavy accent, and very static connection. When I asked for a name and number to call and confirm, he said what seems to be the problem? I told him he was full of crap, IRS does not call on a bad connection and he said okay well thank you and hung up.....
Received a call from david miller stating he was from IRS and going to file lawsuit, freeze all assets, bank accounts, pensions, social security....blah blah. Also was going to have me arrested by Sheriff..asked to speak to superior as he was Asian, indian or other foreign nationality. Got superior on phone William Blake...both gave me"ID badge nos for IRS" and generic reference file no. When I stated I felt this was a fraud call and asked for the IRS mailing address to write them he hung up. This was reported this date to the US Treasury Dept in Washington, DC at 1-800-366-4484. I suggest all who get calls from this number to do the same to try and stop these calls.
I got a call today on VM from Officer David Cruz, that I would be arrested on tax evasion, etc. I was thinking of calling back to get more info on him. I know its a scam.
Got a call from someone with a thick Indian accent, identifying himself as Jason O'Connor from the Internal Revenue Service. He said there was a legal petition for tax fraud which is about to be submitted to the court if he doesn't hear from me. And that immediately following this, they will issue a warrant for my arrest. This is a pure scam!!!!

Do consider maybe getting a call blocking device or phone.. You can google them and many are around $50.00 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.
This just happened to me Jan 30 approx. 12:15 PST William Reece IRS Senior Officer Legal Dept badge 89681. This was very strange. It took me about 4 minutes where I just told him I didn't believe him. He said they had sent me certified letters on 2 occasions. I work from home as does my wife. The number he game me to call did not ring on approx. 8 tries. On the 9th this bozo answered it. DO NOT get fooled by this low-life.
