These guys have sweat shops set up in India and elsewhere that do VoIP call forwarding so it looks like they are from the US but they are not. They have auto dialers to do DoS (Denial of Service) on companies and light up the entire switchboard. They are extortionists that are scaring people into sending money. We called the around, even the FBI, and nothing can be done. If you call the carrier from where this number originates, they will shut the number down but that is only an irritant for them and doesn't solve anything. All you can do is don't talk to them and they will get bored and move along.
Yap. Got a call yesterday and today claiming to be from IRS. Told him to email me the details though I didn't give my email. He got upset and started yelling. IRS NOTIFIES PEOPLE VIA POSTAL MAIL IF THEY HAVE ANY CONCERNS! NEVER BY PHONE...at least to my knowledge.
I just got the same call. I could barely understand what he was even saying. It's very suspect. If the IRS were trying to contact you about some lawsuit, would they really have someone who barely speaks English calling to convey such important information? Beware everyone. I hope people are smart enough to not fall for this.
I got the call from this number, and he told me that he is called from IRS and i have bad deb, and he asked my phone number (Since i called from Mobile). he said my name , you have bad deb and IRS has warrant and Police will arrest you. No other information is provided, he hug up phone.
