This one was saying i owed the IRS $892.00 and that i had 20 minutes to do a wire transfer to a Bank of America account or a warrant would be issued for my arrest for tax fraud, defrauding the IRS. They even claimed to have a agent from homeland security on the line with us.They said that if i didn't pay that the IRS would seize all of my bank accounts & property and that the fines would be $45,000.00 if i took it to court plus 5 years in jail!!!! I wrote down all of the names and numbers and got as much info as i could before i was cussed out and hung up on, I called the IRS and surprise no problems. I also called the Bank Of America to verify the account number and routing number and they were valid. I called the Attn. General, Home Land Security(Since there was an agent involved I.D.#14172012 Sam Anders), and the FTC. NO ONE CARED ABOUT DOING ANYTHING TO SHUT THESE SUCKERS DOWN!! That's our government protecting us, they said just don't give out any information and you should be fine. WHAT B.S.!!! How about fixing the problem and stopping this crap! Come on law enforcement get off your butts and stop this stuff!!
I just received the same call today! I can't believe there is no action being done about this! I knew it sounded fishy when I called back the number, a "leave a voicemail" without any identifier that I was calling the IRS, looked up the number on the internet and this came up. Need to alert people about this scam. This is ridiculous!
I recieved a call from this number saying that I owe the IRS money, and a warrant will be issued for my arrest. Oh well tell them to come with that warrant. Let it be known the IRS, probably owes me money! LOL---- Now they should know that the IRS is not going to contact you they are going to send the police/sheriff to your house. I will take the chance of the warrant for my arrest first.
I got a message originally on caller ID from 630-859-9364. Message purports to be IRS and telling us it's our final notice from the IRS, we are being sued by the IRS and call them back immediately. However, the number they tell us to call back on is 360-967-4458. Sounds similar to many versions of IRS scam calls going around. We ignored it.
The IRS will never call you to try to collect money. They do everything either in person or via the mail.
