I rec'd an automated call 5-7 times in 1 day from this number stating that they are the Internal Revenue Services (IRS).
I was instructed to call this number immediately and this was the Last day before they filed a lawsuit. Note: the message never mentioned any name of the person this call was supposed to concern.
I have no reason to believe that the Real IRS would have Any reason to be after me. Plus, I know that I would have received mail and not an anonymous phone call.
The calls only lasted one day and have not called since
Received call from automated system, claiming to be from the IRS stating that a law suit is being filed against me and that the phone call was the final notice. The number displayed on caller-id was 202-738-4504. Beware!

Do consider getting a call blocking device or phone.. You can google them and many are around $40.00 or so.If its a cell phone, some already have call blocking, if not, there are free apps on the web that will work for some. You can google this. If you have a smart phone, there is a free app called call control. Iphones appear to have apps also. Another one is called Mr. Number.
