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?
Got a phone call with a robo message "The IRS is opening a lawsuit in your name, select 1 or immediately call 817-876-6391" It's a scam. If you owe IRS which we donot, they will mail notices and letters via certified mail. IRS does not call you. It's up to you to call them after they send you something in the mail. I don't know of any phone numbers at the IRS or any other government entity that begin 817-876...it only shows up on my caller ID as a spoofed Washington DC phone number 202-888-3102. Speaking of spoofed numbers these jack [***] scammers have all kinds of phone tactics. We've seen inbound calls on our call history with our own phone number. We have seen such a huge increase in this kind of crap ever since we have had Comcast. Their phone system is not in the least bit secure and they wonder why I refuse to have them handle my home security system.
