They say their from the IRS and you are being sued by them and to call them back. Don't fall for this, This is a scam. I have been warned by news channels and by friends. Don't call them back they will ask for money over the phone. IRS would contact you by mail if there was a problem with your taxes
2 calls received today (and other days) from this number (315) 743-4257. Same complaint as the person above...they leave a message stating they are the IRS and that I am being sued. They request a call back...calls seem to come every 4 hours. I've been informed that this sort of thing would be in writing - NOT OVER THE PHONE....do NOT call them back!
IRS scammers!!! They called my 84 year old fathers phone, but I just happened to answer it. The IRS will NEVER EVER call you and demand money. Please warn everyone you know. These people are truly scum.
IRS tax lawsuit. I called back and the person answering was told his number had been reported to Govt. He said "Good Job" Sounded Like somebody from Mumbai.
