got this call stating IRS and that i owed back taxes and that the police would come to my house unless i paid them 4000 dollars. I turned the information into the federal trade commission. Funny thing is i have be retired and havent done taxes for years. Do not listen to these scammers.
Received a voice mail message saying a legal law suit filed is being filed against me and an "unbailable arrest" is pending. I returned the call this morning and the phone just rang and rang. My husband looked up this number and found all these posts! Thank you, I was scared half to death!
Official IRS Government site detailing this scam and providing links to report it:

If you feel you SSN has been compromised, in addition to putting a fraud alert at the 3 credit bureaus, you may want to notify the IRS. Here is the link, fill out the proper form (probably 14039):
