I’m an Enrolled Agent with the IRS (Inactive). IRS does not initiate contacts by phone. US mail only. IRS does not file lawsuits. IRS has enough administrative authority under the IRS Code and related regulations to collect all taxes lawfully due the federal government. Court action, if any is handled by the DOJ and all parties are entitled to legal assistance if it is a criminal matter. But--tax disputes are for the most part civil matters. 90% of all IRS tax disputes are settled administratively. IRS has absolutely no authority to call on local law enforcement for anything. Local law is never involved in IRS tax disputes. IRS does not threaten to involve local law enforcement or to arrest you for nonpayment of federal taxes. IRS has no powers of arrest as related to ordinary tax disputes. Having a deficiency in taxes owed by way of audit is NOT a crime. IRS does not cold call anyone and demand immediate payment of money. IRS does not ask for financial information over the phone. IRS does not accept Green card money paks for payment in any case. No one is prosecuted for ordinary tax disputes. IRS has absolutely no authority over anyone's professional license. Professional licensing is handled by state governments. Yes, levies on property to satisfy an existing tax obligation do occur, but only after a very long period of negotiation. And yes, liens are placed on individuals but usually after a lot of negotiation and a failure to reach a settlement. All determinations of tax liability are subject to appeals. All contacts by the IRS are initiated by US mail.
I just received a call to guess what I've got the same case number as many other people. The IRS contact you by mail they do not make phone calls this is a scam ignore the call I've gotten them before the last one I got was from a person with an Indian accent telling me that they were going to show up at my house with the sheriff's
It's all BS I know my legal stuff is straight! Don't listen to it! Seriously, who the hell from the IRS says "If you choose not to respond to this call than all I can do is wish you luck as the situation unfolds on you." The voice was automated anyway.
this number call me too. same case number and said I had a criminal case against me. the number was 202-545-6321. I called it back but it had a busy signal. so I thought it was a scam so I looked up the number and found out they call alot of people with the same number.
