Caller ID said Washington, DC. Rcvd it at work 1st thing this morning. Automated message from "IRS" regarding a criminal lawsuit they have filed against me, gave a case # that I didn't get, and return phone number for me or my attorney to call 202-864-1724. The end of the message broke up but essentially told me that if me or my attorney failed to return the call "Good luck as the situation totally unfolds on you". Can't believe the IRS would leave a message like this. Pretty sure it's the same scam/new number.
I have read more than one comment from people in Canada getting bogus IRS calls. But I want to say that those calls are connected to Canadian numbers. My guess is that these telemaggoters don't realize which country they are calling. Unfortunately there is also CRA scam that is taking place and it seems to involve the same tactics.
Just received a call from these clowns too. I called it back, it was a heavily accented person by the name of Abraham Lincoln saying that I was in trouble. I laughed and told him that my name was John Wilkes Booth and hung up
