I received the call at 8:05am, and claimed to be from IRS Audit department. She has a foreign accent. She said that I was charged with tax fraud and if I don't go with a attorney, I will be arrested from the local police. I think is a fraud!

Do consider maybe getting a call blocking device or phone.. You can google them and many are around $50.00 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.
I also received a call from 203-340-6821. She said she works in ACH department, auditing department with Internal Revenue. She gave me a case ID number and stated that I have not responsed to their letter was mailed to me two weeks ago. She said I owed $2,000 tax due with a penalty of $2,500.00. She was kept repeating she will send a local police officer to my house in the next half hour if I don't give the information to her. I reported this number to the IRS.GOV website. IT IS A FRAUD!
