IRS Scam. Threatening action against you if you don't call them back and pay them money.

This is a Pakistan or India based IRS scam. Do not fall for it. The IRS does not initiate any legal action via phone.  
Read http://www.treasury.gov/tigta/press/press_tigta-2014-03.htm

As general background information, here are a few things you can do:
1) Report it to TIGTA under http://www.treasury.gov/tigta/contact_report_scam.shtml especially if you have become a victim (lost money, gave personal information etc.). You can also file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission at ftc.gov/complaint (include “IRS Telephone Scam" in your complaint). This way you can also help the government establish specific fraud patterns.

2) Help kill their phone lines. The scammers use Voice over IP lines (e.g. magicJack (Ymax corporation)) to make it seem as if they are calling from the US. This is always against these companys' terms of service and can lead to immediate termination of their contract and blocking of their IP addresses for future attempts to register. Do a reverse look up of their telephone number (e.g. www.whitepages.com) to identify the Voice over IP provider and report it to the company and/or law enforcement (local police and/or state attorney general)

3) If you are really annoyed: call or write to your representative in Congress. As these scams happen all over the country maybe this will trigger a reaction and provide US law enforcement agencies with the political backing and the resources they need to work in India and Pakistan together with local authorities (it can happen, read: http://www.ndtv.com/article/india/ex-call-cen ... mmission-320427). A US task force has already been set up in Jamaica to nab scammers there (see http://www.ice.gov/doclib/news/library/reports/cornerstone/cornerstone7-1.pdf). You can use the following template for your letter (more powerful!) or email:

I was told by a woman with a thick accent that there is a warrant against me and that a packet from IRS was sent to me a month ago that I have not responded.  I told her I have not received the packet she's talking about and I am requesting that this packet be sent again.  She became very angry and told me that it is not their problem if I have not received it and I only have 2 choices at this point...to follow her instructions to take care of this issue or report me to the local police.  I told her that I am aware of this scam going around and that if it is a serious matter that I would think the federal government would call me on my landline number as it is the one registered and send the documents via registered or certified mail. That's when she angrily continued to yell over the phone saying "I'm with the IRS and shutup and listen to me"....I cut her off and said "I don't think a federal government representative would angrily tell me to shut up!" and I then hung up the phone.....I have high regard for our government and its representatives and I don't think a legit rep would treat their citizens in this manner.....BEWARE of this scam!!!
