This number called four times today, every ten minutes. Because I have been getting tons of sales calls, even though we are on the Do Not Call Registry, I didn't answer the first three. I answered on the fourth call. Got a recording and they do not give the company name but IMPLY they are the IRS collecting a debt...but lo and behold, they can reduce that debt. Shocker. I pressed the option to speak with an agent, but was on hold. I did not remain on hold as in the past when I've done this and tell them I'm on the registry, they just hang up on me, and the calls keep coming.
That is one of the many numbers held by Blue License LLC, which is a company owning a large amount of US numbers that are being rented out to all sorts of companies. That 's by the day, month or year. Everyone needing to do some sort of business can rent one of these numbers and can conduct any form of dubious business. This specific number appears to be from one of those tax firms pretending to be able to save people from the "claws of the IRS". An outfit like Tax Masters probably, that declared bankruptcy after making Millions from scared people.
The actual caller, however, does not identify himself (his company) and starts with scare tactics immediately. I listened to the message; they are trying to appear like being with the IRS. Ignore them !
