I got this phone call today from the following number it's a female with a India accent my caller id says 415-484-8341 San Francisco/North Bay Area. Telling me to dial that number and a Kenneth Webster pick up with a non foreign accent telling me I owe in interest and penalties of $2800 while the female said $10000. Don't give out any of your information to these people
Hilarious and obvious scam. First, the IRS always corresponds via US Mail. Second, according to all the news reports on the government shutdown, that vast majority if the IRS is on furlough. That means all audits and investigations are on hold. However the reports did warn that any payments due should be made on time as usual.
I reported this call today to Morgan and Morgan and here is so many others that are getting the same call from this indian accent man, I think its more chinese.
Yes I agree and I called the IRS is shut down. I called the guy a a-hole because I didnt believe him from the starte. My husband always pays his bills. I knew it was a scam. We did a three way call with our attorney. They wouldnt answer.
A person claiming to be Michael Clark called me representing Kenneth Webster from the IRS Investigations dept. You cannot call them back. The line beeps, or rings then goes to beep.
