The automated call from 415-234-9647 smelled like poo from the start but decided to do a reverse search and landed here. Never called back but I will be reporting this to the IRS. Its a shame that this number is up and running for this long!
YOU OWE 4600 DOLLARS IN TAXES. GO TO YOUR BANK AND WITHDRAW THE MONEY. TAKE THE MONEY TO THE SUPERMARKET AND BUY A (XXXXX) VOUCHER. STAY ON THE CELL PHONE WITH US THE WHOLE TIME. ENLIST THE SERVICES OF A CRIMINAL LAWYER. THE AUTHORITIES WILL BE AT YOUR HOME IN 90 MINUTES TO ARREST YOU IF YOU DON'T PURCHASE THE VOUCHER.
I also got a call from this number. They said I owed the IRS $6000 and if I did not pay it, I would be arrested. She asked if I wanted to resolve it. She gave me another phone number and she said she was the resolution dept. I asked for her name and she hung up. This is a scam.
I received a call from this number. I called them back and at first they called asking for my Father, who hadn't lived here for over five years.
Then they called again, and said the call was for me. The same guy kept hanging up the phone on me several times before. He said he was in a meeting and this was the first time, he had answered the phone. Stated I owed $4965 in back taxes, said I was going to be arrested. I told him to arrest me because I didn't owe any money.
When I called back and asked who I was talking with, he became a smart [***] and said my name. When I said I called the IRS about any outstanding taxes, they said there was none, he hung up the phone.
SCAM SCAM SCAM SCAM!!!! Do not give out personal information.
Left a message that it was the IRS; do not ignore this phone call -- it is time sensitive. On THANKSGIVING DAY!!
The people who do this are such scumbags .... get a real job a --- holes

Do consider maybe getting a call blocking device or phone.. You can google them and many are around $50.00 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.
