Who called from 2022414886

I just received a call from 2022414886 saying there was a warrent for my arrest and he was sending someome to arrest me.

Got the same message five minutess ago from Mark same number, this is scam

I got a call from John Wight. Saying there is an arrest warrant on my name from IRS and I need to go to nearest store where I can transfer the money. My husband tried to call back and get in touch and couldn't.

I first received the scam call on Friday May 2, around noon time it came from area code 206-414-4646
( which I got from my caller ID) They said it was the IRS "dept. I assumed it was bogus, the IRS only sends letters. Called the IRS and got the "TIGTA ( Treasury Inspector General etc ) phone # and e-mail address to report IRS impersonators. Don't even know if that e-mail address was accurate. Then more calls came later that day saying I was being investigated. Then today (May 5th) I got a call stating there was a warrant for my arrest. Called an attorney who was smart enough to realize you can "google" the 202-241-4886 phone #.  I had never thought of that. When someone called and said they were issuing a warrant for my arrest.. that was very scary!! So I feel better now knowing no one is going to knock on my door tonight. I did however sign up with Life Lock (just in case) in order  to protect my bank accounts credit cards, etc and check on my credit report each day for any unusual activity.

This is not a legitimate call from the IRS.
