Who called from 2022417006

Got the call and when I called back he asked for my personal info and I said no,  who wad he trying to reach.  He said I need to ask back Monday he was closing the office.  Crazy.

Just received the automated call today.  I was pretty sure it was a scam just because they addressed themselves as an IRS officer and the quality was so poor.  I know IRS usually would have a paper trail a mile long before an agent would call you directly.  Glad I came here to see I'm not the only one and will not return the call.

This is not a legitimate call from the IRS.
