Annoying calls from idiots in a call center claiming to be from the Criminal Investigations Department. Bogus call claiming I owe over $6000 in IRS takes (WRONG) and that there is an arrest warrant out for my arrest (LIE). These morons keep calling thinking I am some sort of simpleton who will fall for their FAKE NEWS! Beware of the ALTERNATIVE FACTS the bozo's on the other line will try to spin. It's a con and they are hoping to catch a fool willing to part with their money!
Man stated he was with the IRS and was calling for me to pay $4700 in misreported taxes . I needed to resolve today or hire an attorney to fight it in court. When I told him I would like some form of documentation and I would settle it he hung up. Since when does the IRS call you before contacting by mail, what an idiot!
They are. It is. Unfortunately the callers are located in India and Pakistan and there is nothing the US can do about it. Local authorities do little. Invest in a call blocker and do not pick up on call numbers you do not recognize
