Its the IRS scam, and its all over this board. It has even made the national news. The scammer demands immediate payment of over due taxes. They must be payed by wiring the money or by giving the scammer your credit card or bank account number. The scammer threatens you with arrest.
The IRS never makes initial contact by phone. They never demand immediate payment. The caller is a scammer. Do not send him any money. Report him to the real IRS.
left automated message claiming to be from IRS and advised that I would be arrested; when I called back and someone actually answered, they hung up when I asked for their name
Received call today and I was smart not to call them back. The recording sounded computer generated asking me to call back and speak to a federal agent at 240-204-9494 regarding a federal criminal offense and I'm to appear before a judge or magistrate. I filed a complaint with the FTC. DEFINITE SCAM
