We got the message on our machine. I called our local TV station and they are going to investigate and warn people about this SCAM. Yes, it is a SCAM. The station also said to notify the police. If these people can be tracked down they will be arrested. What they are doing is a crime!!!!
Received a pre-recorded message requesting me to call 253-292-3889 because the IRS was taking legal action against me. Call came in from an "unknown" number. This was the second such call. I received another scam call from a heavily accented women from another number profiled on this website. Thanks to the folks who make this scam website available! Can someone stop, arrest, fine, these jerks.....
Said it was the IRS...same as the previous callers. Left a message on answering machine. Goggled the number and led me to here. Thanks for posting warnings.
SImilar message left on my phone. I called the number (highly suspecting it was fraudulent) and it appears to be disconnected now. If it was really the IRS, then if you called back, they should know who you are and all about you just from your phone number. Unfortunately, other people may know more about you from your phone number too. In the case of the IRS, they should also know a lot about your tax return info (without you providing more than your phone number) if you wanted to verify it was them. A friend of mine got a call like this and called and got a similar story as the above ones, and when they threatened to call the police, told them that was fine since it would save him the trouble of calling them himself!
