the number called me three times within three hours and left no voicemail. When i finally got a hold of someone the speaker had a thick indian accent and began asking for my phone number before telling me any information. after asking him a few times what the call was in reference to he said something about an IRS lawsuit and asked if i knew about it. I said and didnt and he proceeded to ask for my name.
I told him i wouldnt tell him any more information and if he was calling about a lawsuit he would have information on file, so i asked again what the call was in reference to and what information he had.
he then paused and mumbled something, told me not to worry about it and hung up.
out of sheer boredom i called back repeatedly within 5 minutes and no one picked up.
ill continue to call this number back to try and fish more information about them and their goals hopefully to help people not get scammed. I would assume posing as an IRS related laqsuit after name they would have asked, address, followed by social security number.
They have been calling me for several weeks now. I guess, they are forgeting that i told them that are scammers. As soon as i tell them that are not from IRS, they hang up. But the starnge thing is that couple of times, they were able to call me from 800-829-1040 number. How did they do that i don't know, but when i called back the 202-241-2589 number was the same person and he hang up again. Big scam.
Claimed to be the IRS. I didn’t answer but a message was left. The message was a machine recording saying to call 202-241-2589 immediately before legal action was taken to forcefully recover the amount unpaid. When I called back, there was a recording of a man with a foreign accent saying to call back because the mailbox was full.
I just sent him a message , I told him if I find him ,I will cut his balls off with a rusty can cover . I am sure its someone from another country trying to get imfo. I also had a call from the IRS saying if I want to no where my return is ,I haven't even file yet ,
