Just got this call and did not answer. I tried calling back because my mom is visiting LA and the call never when through so looked up the number to be sure. Thanks 800 notes! I then googled this and the IRS has issued a warning for phone calls exactly like this - http://www.irs.gov/uac/Newsroom/Phone-Scams-C ... 5-Filing-Season

I received seven calls from this number on my TextPlus account (a text-only service.) After checking here, it's good to know I can add the number to my blocked caller list.
Number called me, I don't answer calls I don't recognize. Let someone show up on my door I will introduce them to Smith n Weston and Mr Winchester. Deputy lives a few house from me.
It's smith and wesson. Just because a deputy lives 2 houses away from you does not mean he's your neighborhood watch. As the wife and daughter of Deputy Sheriffs, it's pretty annoying when people bring tickets to your door to sign off or be the neighborhood security.
For your neighbors security you should stop telling people a Deputy lives two doors down as you wouldn't want him saying my neighbor two doors down owns guns.
I live 2 doors down from a police officer and he's quite proud to be our "watchdog" in the neighborhood. Says all the time that nobody has to fear getting broken into because he's right in the middle of all of us.
6/21 - received call to my cell phone number, one ring and then a hang up. I did not call the number, but looked it up on this website and saw that the caller claimed to be from IRS and was threatening arrest if arrangements weren't immediately made to pay for a tax fine or issue. My sister had informed me of this scam as she received a message on her answering machine at home with the same type of message. That she was going to be arrested if she didn't call to immediately make arrangements for a tax penalty or fine owed to the IRS. She did not respond to his voice mail either.
