A woman with a very thick Indian accent identified herself with a very generic American name, says she is calling from the crime division of the Department of the Treasury about a loan that has been taken out in my name linked to my address. Sounds so official ... but it is Labor Day. I am pretty suspicious. I bet if any workers get Labor Day off, it's federal employees. Anyone else getting these type of calls?
Report the Calls to the real IRS here:
•report the incident to the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration at 800-366-4484.
•You can also file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission at FTC.gov. Add "IRS Telephone Scam" to the comments in your complaint.

Do consider maybe getting a call blocking device or phone.. You can google them and many are around $60.00 or so.
