I received the same message, the first time I tried to call it said the Verizon subscriber was unavailable, tried again, and "Officer Mark Robinson" answered the phone, but he hung up right away. Unnerving to say the least even though I am fairly certain I have no issues with IRS.
A man with poor telephone reception called and left a message on my answering machine. He addressed me and my wife by name and he said he was officer Mark Robinson with the Legal Investigation Department of the Internal Revenue Service. It was difficult to understand what he we was saying through the accent and the static noise. He mentioned something about debt and that I should call (312) 940-6328 before a claim is filed. I have no reason to believe that I owe the IRS anything. I think this is a total scam but I still had to do some research before this conclusion. I will not be returning this call.
Rec'd call from "out of area" (no number on caller ID), message left by someone with a foreign accent saying he was Steven Smith with the investigative dept. of IRS and that a claim had been filed against me. Used my first & last name....said to call back to 212-940-6328 to resolve it before it went to federal court. English spoken as if not his first language. I think this is a scam since I know I don't have any issues with the IRS. When I checked out this number it is a cell phone.
Received a message on my voice mail from this number. Only said my first name, very bad English , like it was a second language, almost like he was reading from something, officer mark Robertson from the investigation unit of the irs, Just to let me know that a case was going to be filed in the federal court, I need to respond to his call. I did call back just out of couresity to see what type of response I would get from irs, never did get through, the call never connected just static. Again as others have stated I know I have no issues with the irs, but nevertheless the call was un nerving to say the least. I shall not call the number again.
