Received a call from 202-697-9713 with a female computerized voice stating this was the IRS with "final notice" and that a lawsuit has been filed against us. There had been no prior contact either by phone or snail mail which made me suspicious. Plus we have no unresolved tax issues anyway.
This is a scam. Do not call them back. They are trying to prey on good people (especially the elderly) who follow the law but don't know any better. This is the height of tax season so they are hedging their bets that you have some type of tax worry and may call them back to give out more of your financial info. Post here to help your fellow citizen or you can file a complaint using the FTC Complaint Assistant; choose “Other” and then “Imposter Scams.” If the complaint involves someone impersonating the IRS, include the words “IRS Telephone Scam” in the notes.
