They left a message for me to call them back saying there was a law suit filed against me by the irs. When I called back and Confirmed my name the call was disconnected. Should have checked here first.
Recieved a call today from this number claiming to be from the IRS and demanding I make payments in full. This is not the real IRS. It is a scam.
The IRS will never call you from a WIRELESS PHONE for one.
Second, they will mail out any bills owed long before calling directly.
The IRS will never ask for specific payment types.. IE Money Transfers, Prepaid Cards.
If you ever receive a call like this and you are questioning it... Just hang up and call back the appropriate number and ask them about it. Do not call back a number given to you by the caller or the caller id number. Call the actual company,,, IE the IRS and they'll easily tell you if it's a scam or real. If it is real you can always say you just lost connection no harm done. If it's not real and you fall for it, you could be out hundreds if not thousands of dollars.
Someone called me from this number claiming there was a lawsuit against me from the IRS for me to call that they needed imformation, my wife returned the call and said she reported the number to the police they hung up on her..WHAT A SCAM..be careful out there.
I got a recorded call from this number claiming that the IRS was filing a lawsuit against me. I can't believe people are still buying into this! I wish someone would shut them down already!!
So, far today this number has called my phone twice. The recorded message tells me to call back at that same number. I figured it was a scam and I won't call it back, and I see on this site that I'm not the only one. I'm sure if the real IRS needed me for anything I would have been getting some kind of notice in the mail. I do wish that something could be done to stop these kinds of scams.
