Left a voice mail saying it was a legal matter. Called back and claimed i had a outstanding amount and the state had a no tolerance policy for repayment and a warrant was issued for my arrest where i'd face 6 months in prison and my assets would be seized. They wanted me to make payment by withdrawing cash and giving them an activation number from a card i'd buy at a local CVS (or other similar stores) and give them part of the code so they could file it with my application to avoid arrest.
while on the phone I got another incoming call from a lady claiming to be with the US treasury. The Caller ID listed it as an Emergency Call and not a normal phone number. Not sure how they do that but it is part of their scam.
Received 2 calls so far. Same as above...Told them if I had a problem with my taxes I would have been notified by mail. He responded with mail was sent and I never responded so I better call my lawyer... total scam. I just hung up.
Got a call today from this number. Same message that everyone else is receiving: US treasury taking legal action against me. I'm hoping they call back so I can screw with them and piss them off. It's a scam yall. ANY legal action would be delivered via mail or in person.
Only called back because I was in a bad mood; someone with a thick middle eastern accent answered, saying something about US department of affairs. I asked what is this about, he said something, which to me sounded like "f**k off" and hung up. Well that takes care of that, I guess.
