Same call was made to my mother. This is shamful to be praying on an innocent 88 year old senior citizens. Why has the IRS not been told about this scam!
Just got the same phone call from a Jane Smith telling me that there is a warrant for my arrest and that I owe $6,000. I always pay my taxes and ive never been in trouble with the law. Im so happy that I saw this post and the other ones. Thanks for being proactive and sharing your experience with everyone

Do consider 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.
