Another phony IRS call, ignore, they even will leave a message on your answering machine! At least they have someone without an accent recording their garbage message. I hope there is not too many stupid people that believe their attempt at thievery. Done anyone believe that the IRS would call from 202 area code?

I get the same call. also get dozens of other scammers. Thank God I bought a Call blocking device few months ago. best $40 investment
I every made. It blocks ALL scammers and blocks up to 1000 numbers. Already blocked 350 calls. The Phone like never rings, but it logs the number
The IRS telephone scam is getting absurd!! FIRST CALL: 3/23/16 11:44 AM recorded message from 202-888-3102 that "IRS had claim against me and I should call," with "Washington, DC" recorded on my ID. SECOND CALL: That afternoon 6:24 PM recorded threatening message from 206-201-2785 that "IRS had filed suit and I should call," with only calling telephone number recording on my ID. THIRD CALL: Next morning 3/24/16 11:44 AM recorded message from 404-790-1702 again saying "IRS had claim against me and I should call to resolve," with only their telephone number recorded on my ID. My name was not mentioned in any of the calls. Am retired and have no problem with IRS and have received nothing in writing from IRS to indicate any problem. Obviously, the phony IRS scammers now have a wide-spread and well-established network so BEWARE.
2nd call today -same woman sounding very dominating and harsh on the recording. Why indeed can't they be shut down and prosecuted. I personally know of someone who committed suicide over one of these calls - someone who really hadn't paid their taxes and believed they had been caught. Shot himself and also the family dog. Very sad.
