Who called from 3606634441

IRS Scam, hung up

Just got this call but it went to my Google Voice number - something I don't use BUT as a throwaway number. Apparently, I'm being sued by the IRS - an entity that probably has every conceivable piece of information about me - social security number, address, phone number - but this is the only way to get in touch?

I genuinely feel bad for those who'd fall for this. Very likely someone who may be new to the country or simply doesn't understand the way things work. These crooks are just looking for that handful of people who DO return the call. I wish we could do more to stop them.

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.

They calling saying the are the IRS. The IRS sends out letters.

I have received this phone call from 3 different numbers. One from Florida, Colorado, and now Washington. They keep asking if I am still waiting for grant money to pay off all of my dept. Clear scam to get my personal info.
