I got the same call from the same number. It must be automated and masked because the number I called back was some poor old man in MD. Anyway, I wanted to call back to troll them hard and waste their time while having a laugh. It is blatantly obvious it was a scam, and even to those that fell for it a little... nothing ever works that way. The IRS would never do that type of thing, its a government agency. They take their sweet time with mail and assessments and more mail and more red tape and more mail and maybe a phone call that you initiate... its never "GET TO THE CHOPPA!!".
