Most of these calls are coming from India and Pakistan. We have no jurisdiction in the foreign country's - so unless their governments decide to cooperate, not much is going to happen.

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.
Received 2 Robo calls today on my answering machine, both claiming to be from the IRS and, as stated by others here, threatening legal action for IRS fraud. The numbers that called me were 202-864-1183 and 360-464-1123 claiming to be from the office of agent "Jenny White". I immediately went to the IRS website for info as to reporting these scam calls.
Reports were made to both agencies:
The Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration at 800-366-4484_
and The Federal Trade Commission at FTC.gov. Add "IRS Telephone Scam" to the comments in your complaint.
