I'm getting calls from this same number saying I've been selected from the federal government to receive a once in a lifetime free government grant that never has to be paid back of $9,000 because I've paid my taxes on time for a one time refundable fee of $250. Says I can go to my local Western Union. When I told him I looked it up and shows it's a scam and asked what department of the federal government he was associated with, he hung up on me. The guy was Asian and gave me an American name (Jerry Wilson).
received a call this morning stating they are from the IRS and there is a criminal suit against me. They must hear from me or my attorney. Really the IRS has time to call. These people need to be stopped.
Typical IRS scam robocall ending with the comical line, "good luck as the situation unfolds on you." I suppose somebody must fall for these inept scams, but really, this one made us laugh.
