& ANOTHER 'I.R.S.' scammer call.
Only they're calling themselves "Internal Revenue Service-S"! NOTE, the U.S. federal government agency is the "Internal Revenue Service." =singular, not plural. ; )
A pre-recorded message:
- DID NOT identify WHOM (if indeed anyone, but their next ignorantly willing 'mark') the call was supposedly addressing,
- stated this was a 'final notice',
+ claimed [someone/anyone/everyone/noone? =] is being sued,
+ requested return call at same # (above, also appearing on caller id.)
NO ONE can be in any way shape or form held legally 'answerable' to any such 'unaddressed' message, verbal / written--DUH? X )
+it IS ILlegal for any debt collector to initiate contact with anyone via pre-recorded message,
+ illegal for them to threaten legal action before even informing anyone of what ever in the world they're only HOPING you'll jump to a conclusion they're supposedly claiming to be calling about,
+ illegal for them to make any such 'collections' claims without showing ANY documented proof that they're authorized to collect ... ANYthing.
+ NO ONE IS EVEN 'LEGALLY' OBLIGED TO ANSWER THEIR PHONE (= or read their e-mail for that matter, dear 'gen.-Y'? X) unless personally issued a court-order, ON PAPER to do so in the first place!
= If it's not delivered by U.S. Postal Service or court-approved courier ... any such alleged 'notice' CANNOT be legally qualified as 'official'.
Therefore, if you can't be bothered then don't even answer, let alone PAY them a single red cent!
It IS a Federal Offense of fellony to pose as an official from the U.S. department of the "I.R.S.", regardless (which is why these fruads use 'robo-calling' so if anyone returns their auto-message they can legally claim 'you initiated person-to-person communication with them')
... and these calls SHOULD be reported:
{Whell, NATURALLY our government takes an especially keen interest enforcing that its tax-collections aren't being siphoned off by illegitimate 3rd parties! ; ]
File an on-line or phone complaint of harassment and F.T.C. violations with
The Federal Bureau of Investigations @ https://TIPS.FBI.gov/ (accessible from their "Report Threats and Crime" page).
What's more: if you've cause to believe such fraudulent calls originate from another state, the operation is probably ALSO subject to the Federal "R.I.C.O." act--which should be noted in your report; the F.B.I. does take such illeagal activities especially seriously.
+ DOUBTless, even the REAL Internal Revenue Service[-NO plural 's' on the end!] will be interested in hearing about these incidents? These scams have been going on for a few years now + the actual U.S. I.R.S. may have a page on their site for reporting these now, also.
I had a message on my answering machine from this # 360-358-2930. The message has been cut off due to them not knowing. It was a machine and all I heard was "filling a lawsuit against you. Please call" and they hung up. For real people need to get a job and stop ripping off working Americans!
