Just got a call from this number--it was a guy with an accent I couldn't place claiming to be from the IRS, that they knew about a letter I had gotten from the IRS (that part was true), that I was being audited, that there was a warrant issued in my name, that I would have to travel to Washington D.C., asked if I thought he was joking, claimed that if I hung up he would have to dispatch a patrol car and have me arrested. At that point I hung up and made myself a sandwich.
As of this writing, an hour later, I am still a free citizen.
the real number is magic jack. untraceable. I blocked it from my phone but they still call twice a week, every week (Verizon online shows all incoming calls, blocked or not...these do not get past it so my phone never rings, but they still call)

People Beware!! TOTAL SCAM! People Beware!! TOTAL SCAM! !!!!!!!!! How can this be reported to the authorities? I called back the number thru an anonymous phone number and sure enough, as others have posted above, claiming to be the IRS. Done 3 calls, answering machine says nothing about being the IRS, and just to leave name and number. 4th call, woman answered, you guest it, with an Indian accent, claiming to be the IRS, So I asked for her employee number and Manager contact, and she hung up the phone. People Beware!! TOTAL SCAM! People Beware!! TOTAL SCAM!
