Hi Whitney. I just did some research myself and found a site that answered the question. I and others did get voice mail about being a lawsuit being filed against "me" (they didn't give a name just "filed against you"). Its a NYC number (as you probably know but I live in Chicago so I had to look it up). They give a call back number that seems to vary. The recording is that it's the IRS who is filing suit and to call back immediately. Our local TV station here just did an expose on this and it's a scam. The IRS will ALWAYS contact via mail or in person (If necessary). Just so you know in case they call again.
Digital female voice message saying it was a call from the IRS, and threatening to file a lawsuit against me, and to call an area code (206) number for more details. Total scam, don't fall for it. The IRS ONLY contacts people through the mail or in very bad events, in person. BLOCK THIS NUMBER.
Rec'd 2 Voice msgs, 16 Feb 17, from 347-571-5992, saying lawsuit being filed by IRS. Scam for sure. Notice they don't say who in the family is being sued? That's why they want u to call back on that fake IRS nr, so they can get your name off of the Caller ID.
Block the nr & report it to the Fed Trade Commission!
800 Nores: we know this IS a scam, but u don't allow us the option of listing it as such? Why? It's unknown as to who is calling, but the call type is definitely NOT unknown. We know it's NOT the IRS. They send letters! Please....?
