This is the biggest scam I've heard of. I got 2 calls yesterday, one today I have NOT returned the calls and don't intend to. Julie Smith is a busy person calling all of us. She needs to get an honest life.
Law enforcement has been been warning people in Calif about fraudulent calls and fake calls from the "IRS" demanding People hire an Attorney to pay the alleged debt owed. It is the fakest robot call I've ever heard. They threatened collection would take place in court. I laughed.
Received a message from Julie Smith stating not to disregard the message she left and repeats the number two times. Funny it ends with a good bye and take care. No details of what to take care of though.
Report the Calls to the real IRS here:
•report the incident to the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration at 800-366-4484.
•You can also file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission at FTC.gov. Add "IRS Telephone Scam" to the comments in your complaint.

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.
