got voicemail left today supposedly from the IRS. Called number back no response and not answered. Worried as our social security numbers were hacked last year. I am presuming this is a hoax. ??
I just got the same call..When I wouldn't verify my home address, she hung up. Sounded like the call was coming from India. So this is def fake and I shouldn't worry?
THIS IS A SCAM! If you call, it will eventually be answered. It seems to be a call center with Indian employees. I called a few times. I spoke to one woman and asked where the phone number could be verified. She told me "www.irs.com" SIC, she said "COM". There was also a man who answered. I asked him where I could verify the phone number and he told me "I am not here to make you believe. Go ahead and ignore the call. In 45 minutes the arrest warrants will be filed against you. You will lose all of your assets, you will go to jail...." I asked him again, is there somewhere that I can verify this phone number and he began again: "Go ahead and ignore the call". THIS IS A SCAM, designed to SCARE people into giving their information out, and they need to be STOPPED. I personally am re-dialing this number constantly. Please help me with this, and please report this number to others that can deal with it personally or legally.
