Got voicemessage last night after 700pm from "IRS Tax Admin" saying the IRS has filed a lawsuit against us. When called number it was a guy named "Adam White", IRS Case Officer ID #2508. He had heavy Indian accent which was suspicious. Said he is from attorneys office of IRS. He said we owe underpaid taxes for 6 previous tax years. He said how much we owe. Threatened law suit if we don't pay, as well as confiscate our house/cars, freeze our bank accounts, freeze our wages/benefits, notify credit reporting agencies, issue warrant, sieze, etc, etc. Wanted to know if we wanted to settle now? Fortunately, I was very suspicious & did not give him any personal info, not even my name, address, etc. We contacted our tax accountant & told him about it & confirmed not legit. **CAUTION---this is definitely a scam!! It's a big problem in U.S. If you get this type call, do not give any personal info about yourself. Hang up. Report them to the Attorney General's Office and/or TheTreasury Inspector General For Tax Admin. 1-80-366-4484
I read in news last year that there was an Indian dude convicted and sentenced to prison for such a scam. He was crying in the courtroom saying he made some bad decisions - yeah right. Bad decisions ? No it was criminal activity! Need more of these people convicted and sent off to prison for a long time.........................................
