States use grand juries occasionally to return indictments against people suspected of committing a crime. The federal government uses them excliusively for criminal prosecutions. But this is all a scam by the IRS scammers in India and Pakistan. No one is prosecuted int eh US for ordinary tax disputes. Tax disputes are basically civil matters and are normally dealt with adminstrativey. IRS does not inititate contacts by phone in any case. US mail only. Ignore and block these calls.
Anyone hit by these IRS scams should consider blocking the following area codes:
206 253 360 425 509 564 also are code 202. The stupid scammers don't understand the difference between Washington State and Washington DC. They think that the people they call will think that the Washington State area code calls come from Washington DC.
I read in the NYT that 600 people arrested in Mumbai, India for IRS scams they are running on US citizens. Estimated $50 Million dollars scammed from people in the US. More arrests maybe coming the article said. And we can only hope they get these criminals in those raids.
It was actually 70 people arrested.

Left a VM saying the call was on behalf of Treasury dept and failure to call back would result in further legal action. Inye resting the number they called is a land line I received from Cox 2 months ago and I have never given it out to anyone and do not use it.
