Yet another scam phone call. Assuming it is another FAKE IRS from a crook. Deleted them and will soon be reporting all of these scam numbers to the phone company and to the DoNotCall people (who do not seem able to block these junk callers!)

That would be because the DNC list is not a blocking service! It works when registered telemarketers purchase the list and screen against it or use it as an exceptions list in their automatic dialers. The DNC people's job is to 1) maintain a list of residential and personal numbers that do not want to receive SALES calls; 2) register telemarketers and collect fees from them to both register and obtain the DNC list of numbers; and 3) maintain a database of complaints about alleged violations for law enforcement and other agencies to use to fine violators and/or prosecute them. This is all explained in detail on the DNC website under Information for Consumers and Information for Businesses.
