SHARE TO STOP A SCAM; SOMEONE IS PRETENDING TO BE IRS! Received a call from this number 347 960 6483 with a female voice stating the she was Alexis Jane (with an indian accent) from the IRS and that I had an arrest warrant and if I did not pay $6500 right away, they would issue an arrest warrant. They were very very convincing!! They even passed me from one department to another. This is an illegal operation and report it to the authorities as soon as you can.
Total scam. Originates in either India or Pakistan. Block and ignore. DO NOT RETURN THE CALL!

I’m an Enrolled Agent with the IRS (Inactive). IRS does not initiate contacts by phone. US mail only. IRS does not file lawsuits. Court action, if any is handled by the DOJ and all parties are entitled to legal assistance if it is a criminal matter. But--tax disputes are for the most part civil matters. 90% of all IRS tax disputes are settled administratively. IRS has absolutely no authority to call on local law enforcement for anything. Local law is never involved in IRS tax disputes. IRS does not threaten to involve local law enforcement or to arrest you for nonpayment of federal taxes. IRS has no powers of arrest. If LE is necessary, US Marshals do the job. IRS does not cold call anyone and demand immediate payment of money. IRS does not ask for financial information over the phone. IRS does not accept Green card money paks for payment in any case. No one is prosecuted for ordinary tax disputes. IRS has absolutely no authority over anyone's professional license. Professional licensing is handled by state governments. Yes, levies on property to satisfy an existing tax obligation do occur, but only after a very long period of negotiation. And yes, liens are placed on individuals but usually after a lot of negotiation and a failure to reach a settlement. All determinations of tax liability are subject to appeals. All contacts by the IRS are initiated by US mail.

Just got hit by this scam and nearly passed out as I thought it was true.. until they said the only way to fix it is to pay them in cash in the amount of $6900 or something. Thank you to the kind gentleman for explaining the IRS' process. Put me at ease. This is a horrible, very elaborate scam to get $.
