SOME ONE POSING AS AN IRS OFFICER ASKED ME TO DEPOSIT $2,400.00 THRU WALMART CUSTOMER SERVICE --- SOMETHING CALLED GREEN DOT ACCOUNT.
I DEPOSITED THE MONEY BECAUSE I GOT SCARED. BUT WHEN I TRIED TO CALL AGAIN THERE IS A VOICE MAIL WITHOUT ANY NAME PERSON'S MENTIONED ON THE VOICE MAIL. SOMETHING IS VERY FISHY.
I'LL TRY TO CALL THE AUTHORITIES TO REPORT THIS INCIDENT.
AGENT MICHAEL THOMAS POSING AS AN IRS OFFICER TOLD ME TO DEPOSIT $990.00 THRU WALMART CUSTOMER SERVICE --- SOMETHING CALLED GREEN DOT ACCOUNT DUE TO A UNPAID IRS TAX BILL. THREATENED ME WITH JAIL TIME IF I DIDNT DO IT IMMEDIATELY. I PLAYED ALONG AND TOLD HIM I HAD THE GREEN CARD. HE THEN WANTED ME TO SCRATCH OFF THE SECURITY STRIP ON THE BACK OF THE CARD AND GIVE HIM THE NUMBER. AS I GAVE HIM A NUMBER I COULD HEAR HIM ON A COMPUTER CHECKING TO SEE IF THE CASH WAS AVAILABLE. ONCE HE REALIZED IT WAS A FAKE NUMBER HE HUNG UP. SPEND 20 MINUTES ON THE PHONE WITH THIS SCUM BAG. I FIGURE IT WAS 20 LESS HE HAD TO TRY AND SCAM SOME OTHER PERSON.
Someone posing as an IRS officer left a threatning voicemail for me... My first reaction was that IRS would first send a written notice, secondly they would never threaten anyone but would courteously tell them the reason for their call. I have the recorded message and callers info. maybe I should hand it over to the authorities.
Agent Michael Thomas, stated he was with the IRS tax crime unit. He demanded we call him back or we will be sued. We are prime suspects in a tax crime case. The name Michael Thomas shows as an attorney in New York. He is an IRS investigator at this number: 212-436-1761. Like others have said, we would have gotten a letter; not a demanding, angry person, threatening us. BEWARE!
Called and said they were from IRS tax crime unit. I told them to send me any correspondence through mail. He said that they were sending local sheriff to come arrest me. I told him I would be here waiting for them. IDIOTS!!
