Received call from this number on 5 December 2015; caller ID read "Sumner, WA". Didn't answer, message was left on voicemail. Voice was obviously computer-generated female. Obviously a scam; report filed with the US Dept. of Treasury TIGTA. Transcript of the message follows:
"Call is officially a final notice from IRS, Internal Revenue Services. The reason of this call is to inform you that IRS is filing lawsuit against you. To get more information about this case file please call immediately on our department number 253 299 4029. I repeat 253 299 4029. Thank you."
"This is your final warning. The IRS is about to file a lawsuit against you. It is important for you to call 253-299-4029 immediately."
These robo calls come from scammers who want you social security information along with as much banking information that you have on hand.
This is not the way the IRS works. The IRS does not call. They do not send emails threatening you. Purely criminals who need to be locked up.
DO NOT CALL. Even if you call just to harass them they will identify your number as someone who responds, which means your number will be moved onto a list of suckers who respond. Responders are a group that are more likely to be suckered; if not by this scam a different one that they will do in the future.
Left message that the IRS is going to file a lawsuit against you and to immediately call 253-299-4029. Caller ID indicated call was from "Sumner" in Washington state. Did not and will not call back.
