Same scenario here today December 1st. A voice messaqe on my phone from Julie Smith at the IRS (415-234-9613) telling me that it is urgent that I contact her.
This is the 4th call from Julie Smith. What is going on?
These people are ruthless, they are calling my home number and my cell... they say they are from the IRS and they want me to confirm my personal information to them.... I told them that if they were REALLY the IRS I would have received some sort of written correspondence.... she (in a think Indian accent) told me angerily that I could just wait until I got the letter with a law suit.... ARE THES FOLKS FOR REAL?
I received a call from the said number stating that they were from the IRS trying to contact me before action was taken. This actually was a message they left on my answering service. Due to some phone problems I was not able to get right back to them. The call seemed pretty shady and pretty suspicious to me but when I did decide to call (thinking maybe it was a family member that they were trying to get a hold of) the phone rang, went to dead silence and then immediately hung up. So... maybe they've been shut down and caught as of 11-26-14. Or at least I sure hope so.
Have been receiving calls from this # for quite some time. Today, they called and left a message stating they were from the IRS and I needed to "urgently" contact a Julie or Judy Smith. Called back and some bimbo answered. I asked her what the hell she was doing calling my number and asked what she wanted. She asked for my name and I wouldn't give it to her. She said she didn't want anything from me and hung up. So....I did the honorable thing. I called them back nonstop for over two hours. They would either just hang up or my call would go directly to vmm. So....I'd either blow a loud whistle or ring a loud bell in lieu of leaving a message. Moral of the story is....if they can be annoying, so can I. This is a major scam and the government is doing nothing about it just like so many other things that are going on in our country!
Hello fellow victims!
I got a call from them and some [***] hole indian guy picked up claiming he was officer John Parker calling from the IRS??? id #1869233
I told them that I know the IRS number is not this! They claimed that they would have officers at my door step within the hour if I do not buy a 10 moneypaks from the nearest CVS for $500 each. They told me that they would stay on the phone while I drove to the CVS. I drove to the town police station, gave them the phone, and the "Officer Parker" was caught!!!! Thank the lord.
They wanted the last 4 digits of my taxpayer id and other information. When I told them that I do not feel safe giving that info over the phone, he told me that all my bank accounts and other stuff will be suspended.
Dont give them your name or anything, all they have is apparently your phone number. There is only 1 officer in the IRS? I called 4 times, it was always some indian guy in the indian accent. He can't even say IRS correctly!
