Who called from 2074660082

Received call from this number...recorded message stating important message for the owner of the business from the IRS.
I called the number back only to find that the Number is NOT IN SERVICE.  can we say SCAM ALERT!!!!

ALSO GETTING CALL SAYING PRESS 1 IF YOU ARE AN OWNER, 2 IF MANAGER, 3 IF EMPLOYEE.  CHOSE 3 FOR EMPLOYEE AND THE SYSTEM HUNG UP.

I am so tired of all these calls, they never leave a message. I am keep blocking them but they are so many. This one in particular rang few times in a row making me thing it was an automated one.

same caller message from IRS , [***]

There is a widespread IRS (or CRA) or "tax scam" being  practiced by scammers on both USA and Canadian residents.

Canadian tax payers should read this:

Short answer:
The IRS never initiates a contact via phone.
They always send a snailmail first.
