They called my sister claiming to be investigators from the irs, heavy indian accent, would not provide any proof, was vague, threatened with an arrest, i looked up irs scams and Google the number listed above, also they called on a weekend, government facilities are not open on weekends, this is bogus, tell them you will sue them for harassment if they continue to call
Yes, he called me and I knew it there is something not right! He called at 8:00 PM. He tried to convince me that I did something illegal and I will be arrested if I didn't answer his questions and clear my case. Anyways, that Indian guy started with asking me if I send any money overseas. I told him that I will not answer any question on the phone and don't call me again. He tried to threaten me....I hung up on his face!
Got a similar call from a Gary Jones (yea, nice try with a foreign accent!) claiming to be from the Crime Investigator Division, wouldn't say division of what, but the idiot gave a badge ID, total losers! Go get a real job like everyone else, what a bunch of [***]! Just a waste of everyone's time. I reported it to the police, they know about these guys, and said it is a total scam! Number on caller ID was 202-241-1305

Wife got a call from 202-241-1305 (Said Washington, DC on caller ID) saying that the house was under watch and I had a warrant out for my arrest. Wife hung up after some choice words, but they called right back asking if she was crazy? Wife responded with BAT [***] CRAZY! Then hung up again. Caller had heavy foreign accent.
Just received call from "Mike" - 202 241 3957 or 202 241 3950 (he gave both numbers). Claimed same IRS scam and told me that I had 1 hour to pay a penalty or else they will handcuff me and take me to jail and that the charges against me are true -- would result in 3 years in prison and $50,000. The penalty was $1847 and he would send someone to my house to collect it. I asked for his government id (#15938) and asked him to supply documents in advance to someone showing up at my door. He hung up on me.
