Thank you...just filed a companion on the Treasury website link you provided. I got a call tonight and it sounded fishy from the start given that they provided no actual name or case file number. Unbelievable!
SCAM!! This number left an automated message stating IRS was attempting to file a lawsuit, and I called it back from my landline work phone. A guy with a foreign accent answered "IRS". He proceeded to ask me if I can pay the debt and I kept asking him was he actually with IRS yes. He put me on hold to check with the what he called the IRS superior and I hung up. I attempted to call the number back and it went to busy signal and then no answer after several attempts to call. I was gong to let them know I know they were a scam!!! DO NOT FEED INTO THE SCAM!!
I received the same exact phone call only moments ago. Is this something we should be reporting to the IRS? Or does anyone know of any department that is handling this sort of thing?
