I too got a call tonight saying the IRA is suing me and to call back at number 253-235-4211. The tone of the caller is very authoritative and intimidating. If I was really being sued, paperwork would have preceded this ridiculous phone message. The phone number is listed as coming from Federal Way, WA.
Scam. Recorded message pretending to be the Internal Revenue Service. They offered the option to press '1' to speak to a representative so I did but the call disconnected before I got to speak with any one. Bummer. I was looking forward to laughing at them directly.
Cute touch: The phone number they're spoofing in their Caller ID is "Federal Way, WA". And, yes, there really is a town called Federal Way in Washington state. So by spoofing a number from that area they get a more realistic looking place name to appear in the CNAM field of the Caller ID.
Caller: Crook pretending to be the IRS
Call Type: Scam
