Got a call from 206-641-7014. Heavy accent. Indian or East African type! Sounded phony but pretended to be brave. When I told I just googled you and you are scam, he hang up. Out of curiosity called back - it only worked from the phone the called. The guy who picked up the phone, some Tyler, said IRS does not send letters in the mail! When I asked a friend of mine, he told me it said it was a disconnected number. It was also not listed in YP or WP :( !
PS: Call type below needs to have a category called "SCAM"!
i got a call from this guy today, and he was looking for my mom, saying that their is a warrant out for her arrest. My brother searched his number, came to this website, and read all the comments. I called him back on my cell phone since he called on my parent's landline and said that i was from the Seattle Police Department and said that we had a warrant for his arrest, which was false since i live on the other side of the country. I hope that he is hiding because he is scared of getting arrested. I also mentioned that he is being hunted for embezzlement.
206-641-7014 called today (202-239-2742 had left strange message on answering machine yesterday which gave us time to read and be aware of this scam), definitely south-east Asia (India-Pakistan-like) heavy accent. Claimed IRS investigating us. Upon immediate angry pressure, what is this about, IRS sends letters, multiple letters, IRS has issued multiple advice about what you are doing, it is scam! you are scam! person claimed his name is Ross Taylor and the investigation is about tech fraud (!!?!?!!!??) -we have nothing to do with tech, it was probably the first thing that came to his mind since this is what he himself is involved with: SCAM/TECH FRAUD. Neither phone works if you call back from number other than the one they called you. Please google search "area code 206 scam" "area code 202 scam" or whatever area code they are calling you from and you will read more. This is a huge scam.
