Do consider getting a call blocking device or phone.. You can google them and many are around $40.00 or so.If its a cell phone, some already have call blocking, if not, there are free apps on the web that will work for some. You can google this. If you have a smart phone, there is a free app called call control. Iphones appear to have apps also. Another one is called Mr. Number.
I got this same call for two days, the guy said they sent me a letter on January that I didn't respond back. That it was from the IRS for taxes from 2008-2012. That I owe 3,000 and if I don't do a payment at least of 900 today I will go in to custody by the sheriff and will have to go to court, or be sentence for 6months in prison.
I guess these people got a new number. The recording makes it obvious that it is a scam. Called the number on the caller ID (360/244-4264) back and it kept ringing until a robotic voice said that the party could not take my call. Hope no one falls for this. But obviously people do because otherwise these scammers would "go out of business!"
I just called back (360-244-4264) for case number ( G121286from). asking what happened to me, this person with India accent said same thing as above that I will be taken to the court by martial if I didn't do something. I asked I even didn't know what happened. He kept saying find a lawyer etc. he said his name is Peter Williams with ID WA6523. I asked him to provide martial phone number, he said he didn't know. I felt it was kind of scam, so I kept calling the same number, but he was the only one person to answer these calls. Finally, he put this number with busy. I also called real IRS Impersonation Scam Reporting, none of phone numbers answered.
