Received a call from the "IRS" stating I am under investigation for tax evasion. She spoke with a heavy Indian accent. I was told the local authorities were involved and I needed to answer some questions to get more information. The call was obviously being recorded. After the first question; have you ever been arrested, I said this sounds like a phishing scam and hung up. Tried calling the IRS with no luck getting a live person on the phone. Be very careful to not give out ANY identifying information , and avoid answering anything with yes or no as it is being recorded and they can use that two commit further fraud in your name.
Received a call from this number, 240-200-7501, 2xs in a row. Left a message saying I was under investigation. Caller was had heavy Indian accent! Glad I Google searched the number.
I got the same call and a voicemail on May 17th 2017 - seems to be the big push day on this scam from what I'm reading. The guy definitely had a foreign accent but it did not sound Indian. Guess they didn't meet their quota. Funny part was that I told them the IRS never calls people and the IRS website clearly states this is a scam. They got mad, told me they would settle in court and hung up. I have not received a phone call since.
