I got a call from Stephanie, saying if we didn't get $3000 into the "IRS account" by 2:00pm my husband would be arrested and in jail for 12 months with no opportunity for getting out or getting a lawyer. They wanted me to get cash, go to Western Union and call her back. She would then give me instructions on how to send the money in correctly.
Scared me to death. I called the IRS, they said that it is a scam.
Man with very heavy Indian accent called telling me to call(or my atterny). This message is intended for Craig the second you receive this message I need you or your attorney of record to return the call. The issue is time sensitive. My name is Alex Baker from IRS. on hotline to my division is 415-484-8569. I repeat it's 4154848569. Don't try to disregard this message. And do return the call as soon as possible before any legal allegations don't take place so goodbye and take care."
Received call from this number @ 2:30p today 12/5/13. Left message on Voicemail with an automated voice calling himself Chris Tyler from the IRS. Tried to call back - no answer. Just a beep. Scam.
Just received two calls within 2 hours from David Jackson with thick foreign accent. Do they stop calling, if you don't call back. It is so annoying. The number to call back was 415-691-7195 if anyone from the IRS cares to deal with this instead of poor innocent hard working Americans.
Received two calls in two hours from two different men. Seemed like the same exact dialogue as much as I could understand them. What is interesting is that they were asking for my brother-in-law. Why don't these people get a real job?!?
