Received a call from "John Matthews" of the US Treasury Dept Department of Legal Affairs, with a high-pitched heavily accented voice. He asked to speak to my wife regarding an "enforcement action" taken against her. When I pressed for details, he said it was "confidential," and she had been sent a notice a month ago, and she knew all about it, and I would have to ask her. He provided his phone number 209-565-6426, and an address 1533 Lakewood Drive, Modesto, CA, which appears to be a valid address for the IRS. I could hear the boiler room chatter in the background. He then made some dire comment about needing to hear from her within the hour. It's a scam.
U.S. Dept. of Treasury - (209) 565-6381 - Law Enforcement Action against me with immediate arrest warrant due to tax evasion with an exact delinquency amount. "Need to prepare bail documentation due to imminent jail time". "Payment plan available today."
