Who called from 2762993383

IRS Scam

Caller ID Displayed:  Pennington Gap, VA
Number: 276-299-3383
Call Date: Friday, March 24, 2017
Call Time: 10:18 AM MST

Note: Received a call from this number, but I did not recognize it so I did not answer.  They left a voicemail, but it was the tail end of a robo-message.

When I called back, there was no ring and 54 seconds of silence before the call ended.

When I called back a second time, someone answered right away without ringing as "Dial Revenue Service" with a thick accent.  I advised I was calling them back.  He said he was with the IRS.  I asked how I could help them.  He responded by asking what message was left for me.  I told him that it was the tail-end of a robocall and it only said to call this number back, so I did.

He responded, "don't call me here."  To which I replied, "then don't call me" and terminated the call.

Definitely fake and definitely added to my blocked list.

Seems like a scam. I've received a few calls and every time it's a disjointed robotic call. Do not call the number back. Disregard as spam.

Another Robo dialer featuring a comically bad script and nearly as bad a text to speech engine, claiming to be from the Treasury Department called a business line... Somebody signed up for the calling number, so somebody should be able to track down these criminals.  Obviously, never call these scammers back.
