***DON'T WORRY!!! The IRS DOES NOT CALL ANYONE EVER REGARDING TAXES! They MAIL notifications of ANY IRS related personal info to the individual. PERIOD! These low lifes ATTEMPTED this "THREATENING CALL US OR ELSE" scam -with my husband. However, I had seen on National news previously about this scam. These sumbags call from everywhere. NEVER EVER RETURN THEIR CALLS! NEVER! They are attempting to get you scared so when you call you'll "NEGOTIATE " a great deal to "GET YOU OUT OF TROUBLE FOR A INSTANT CREDIT CARD PAYMENT" - SCAM SCAM SCAM!!!
Since I last posted almost 5 hours ago, I received 4 calls that hung up and the last one, just a few minutes ago, with the same fake I.R.S. threat but with a new number to call. 507-321-0569
I received their call this AM. I let it go to voice mail as I rarely answer a call from a number that I don't recognize. I had a good laugh when I heard the message. I then called my mom to let her know of the scam.
Called me first from 719-421-0040 "this call is to inform you that IRS is filing lawsuit against you to get more information about this case file. Please call immediately on our department number is 719-421-0040. I repeat 719-421-0040. Thank you." called twice with this same robo message. Then they called from 360 386 7361 with the same female robo voice saying
"Hello we have been trying to reach you. This call is officially a final notice from the IRS internal revenue services. This call is to inform you that IRS is filing a lawsuit against you to get more information about this case file. Please call immediately on our department number 360-386-7361. I repeat 360-386-7361. Thank you." The REAL IRS doesn't do things this way. Another attempt at identity fraud.
