CWG40's post is clearly written. I would like to know how you ended up in a thread dedicated to calls from "202-719-5535" if you received a call from "1-202-754-7536."? Since the number that called you has its own special thread, as do all the phone numbers on this site. Further, how would you expect anyone to know if the two numbers are connected? Please post in the proper thread in the future. Posting in the wrong number thread helps no one including yourself.
No one can "blacklist" your SS#.
Total scam. Originates in either India or Pakistan. Block and ignore. DO NOT RETURN THE CALL!

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 recieved a phone call that went straight to voicemail stating that my social security number was on the "blacklist"? And to contact the them before they take legal action at 1-202-754-7536. Could this be a scam number connected to the 1-202-719-5535? I did not return the call but it has got me pretty scared because I feel like I'm a victim of a scam in progress and I have been trying to have it investigated. If you have any answers or questions for me that would be great. Thank you.
