Caller from 202-650-5457 claimed to be IRS, provided name as Kevin Jones. Use scare tactics such as there is a criminal investigation against me, but did not give much details, and wanted to get $1700 as Offer-in-compromise. He said that the cops are on way to get me arrested. THIS IS A SCAM, PLEASE DO NOT FALL FOR IT.
Caller from 202-650-5457 called for my daughter and said that he was from the IRS; when I asked what this was about he said that if I wanted to be involved I could get arrested as well. He told me his name was Kevin Jones but told my dtr that his name was John McKenzie. This is a scam and we need to do something about it. ALL THIS HAPPENED 15 MINS AGO.
I received a call about 2 hrs ago. Message from IRS asking to call back urgently. I called back 2026505457. Officer 22644. I am so much in shock that the name has slipped my mind. He was very rude and threatened me to stop interrupting him or else the police would be at my door within 45 min. He read a list of things I was being charged for. At one point he said that I would go to jail for 7 years. Then he said that my family would be deported first thing in the morning. I am a born citizen!!! He talked down to me and told me that I was being recorded by IrS and immigration. When he heard my husband in the background he hung up. I was very reluctant for my husband to call back because I was just in shock and wanted to contact my CPA first. But my husband called anyway and asked him " how dare he talk to me like that" and not to ever call again, the man started cursing and using horrible language. Since he hung up on my husband, we have been calling and the number is busy. We are great humans and citizens of this country. We don't deserve such harassment. Something needs to be done to put an end to this. I am wondering if I should make a police report?!
