I was left a partial voicemail message of a low quality computerized voice that sounded like a computer reading "Text to Speech". It stated that I would be taken into custody by the local "cops" if I didn't call and discuss "the serious allegations pressed on your name at this moment". The call never explained what the allegations were, unless it was stated in the first portion of the message not recorded on the VM.
Received call at 11:47 on 12/8/15 at home phone. Just received word of my tax notice and I have one chance to clear this before the sheriff's office will arrest me." Left a case number. SCAM!!!!
