They have called me from 5 different numbers. I almost fell for it the first time. They said there was an arrest warrant for me and I had to pay them $3000 right then over the phone . I told them I didnt have it so they said I would be arrested and they said they had a tracer on my phone. After I figured out it was a scam./ I told them I had the money and I would gladly meet them someplace but no money over the phone. I told them I would meet them at the sheriffs office.... they hung up
The calls are coming from hardcore criminals operating out of overseas boiler rooms using computers to alter their identities and locations and out of the reach of US law enforcement. Do not call them back or attempt to engage them in a coherent conversation, as all they are interested in extorting money for nonexistent debts. And, if you pay them, not only will you never see your money again--but they will more than likely attempt to extort even more money from you. A local woman who paid them 5K is now receiving death threats if she does not pay them another 1K. If they call again, just hang up and block the number (if you have that capability) and report them to the REAL IRS online or (855) 411-CFPB (2372).

Two calls two days in a row I called back today and they claim to be the IRS I specifically asked them if it was the IRS the Internal Revenue Service and they said yes and then she kept asking me questions but I refuse to answer and she eventually told me I needed to come in or they are going to file a claim against me and I said on what grounds and she hung up
