Got the same call from This so called "tax litigation dept". Guy with an East Indian accent. It's a SCAM. The IRS will never call you. They will send you a letter if there is an issue. I was tempted to call back and harass them.
just got a phone msg and returned it stating i owe 6,248. for past taxes .l sheriffs dept were going to arrest me on monday which is 3 days from now. asked to speak to a supervisor and transferred wanted to make sure i had the money avail before he transferred me. they are india people. dont fall for it. the irs would not warn you would be arrested. this is a scam.
I got the same call. He said the same thing and gave me a case number and this phone number to call back. When I called back and confronted him about these posts online, he just hung up. Every time I called back, he picked up the phone and hung up. Why do these people have to prey on hard working people!
Well, apparently he's still going strong this week. Just received the same type of call -- heavy accent, calling on our home # instead of our business line, asking twice for my husband instead of me (I'm our company's treasurer and contact person for the IRS), stating he was from the IRS and needs my attorney's phone number. Um, yeah... I don't think so. Total fraud! Caller ID read: 415-251-8361 IGNACIO CA
Called and left a message that said Do Not Ignore this call. Could not understand anything he said - all garbled. Called from my work phone number, after it rang a few times, it hung up and went to dial tone. Scam Scam Scam
