Someone called from this number. It sounded like a foreign speaking person whose voice was muted. He threatened a family member with Law Enforcement Action. I investigated the call. It came from LLC
Level 3 Communications, in LA California, a landline phone. He said his name was Rich Walker from the Legal department of the U. S. Treasurey. These people need to be caught and prosecuted for enpersonating the Federal Government.
I received a call from this number by a person who called himself Kevin Green from the Department of Legal Affairs. He said it was for tax issues and than we were cut off.
I called the number back and got a man named Spencer and he asked if I spoke with Kevin Green and when I said yes he gave me more information stating I had 3 charges against me due to ignoring correspondence to file taxes or pay taxes. He said that those charges are now in effect and I could not hire a CPA, but could expect a law enforcement officer to show up at my place of work and I would be arrested and could receive up to 6 months of jail time. I told this Spencer that this was strange since I have filed taxes every year and that we have a CPA do our taxes. He just said I can expect a law enforcement office to come to my work and than he hung up.
My husband called the number back again and told them that they had called our number and that if they call it again and they hung up before he finished talking to them. Each person from this number had a heavy accent.

Do consider getting a call blocking device or phone.. You can google them and many are around $40.00 or so.If its a cell phone, some already have call blocking, if not, there are free apps on the web that will work for some. You can google this. If you have a smart phone, there is a free app called call control. Iphones appear to have apps also. Another one is called Mr. Number.
213-814-3473 I had a message from this number. I called them back, and they wanted me to give them information, and I said, "you were the ones who called me, you tell me what this is all about". You have received final documents, and have not acted on them. He said he was from the Department of Treasury, and I had filed my taxes wrong, and there was going to be some legal action against me. He sounded like he was calling, from a call center from the middle east. I knew he was scamming me, and I told him, "that's funny, I've already been talking with the IRS". "Who the hell are you"?. He said, good you will receive all of the documents then, and hung up on me.
