It's a scam. They will ask you pay some amount in thousands and will say you have 4 criminal cases by not filling a form during your tax file for the past 2-3 years. If you disconnect, then you will get a call from 911. It's is also scam. They will say it is in conference with police dept. please avoid these scam calls.
Received 2 phone calls from this number. Could not understand them, heavy middle east accent. Something about criminal report and good luck if I do not phone back. Said he was Officer William Smith.
This is a Pakistan or India based IRS scam. Do not fall for it. The IRS does not initiate any legal action via phone.

As general background information, here are a few things you can do:
1) Report it to TIGTA under http://www.treasury.gov/tigta/contact_report_scam.shtml especially if you have become a victim (lost money, gave personal information etc.). You can also file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission at ftc.gov/complaint (include “IRS Telephone Scam" in your complaint). This way you can also help the government establish specific fraud patterns.
2) Help kill their phone lines. The scammers use Voice over IP lines (e.g. magicJack (Ymax corporation)) to make it seem as if they are calling from the US. This is always against these companys' terms of service and can lead to immediate termination of their contract and blocking of their IP addresses for future attempts to register. Do a reverse look up of their telephone number (e.g. www.whitepages.com) to identify the Voice over IP provider and report it to the company and/or law enforcement (local police and/or state attorney general).
3) If you are really annoyed: call or write to your representative in Congress. As these scams happen all over the country maybe this will trigger a reaction and provide US law enforcement agencies with the political backing and the resources they need to work in India and Pakistan together with local authorities (it can happen, read: http://www.ndtv.com/article/india/ex-call-cen ... mmission-320427). A US task force has already been set up in Jamaica to nab scammers there (see http://www.ice.gov/doclib/news/library/reports/cornerstone/cornerstone7-1.pdf). You can use the following template for your letter (more powerful!) or email:
I'm an attorney. This guy's paralegal, "Kimberly Scott" just called my client and scared his half to death. I called "Mr. Morrison" and told him I represented my client. He said he didn't believe I was an attorney and hung up on me. This guys is pathetic. I'm going to be reporting him to the Seattle Bar Assoc and police for practicing without a license.
