Two automated messages left on answering machine on 10/16/2014 from someone claiming to be with IRS. The messages were identical and the caller's name was "Officer Julie Smith with the IRS" stating that "the issue at hand is really time sensitive" and "Don't disregard this message and do return the call before we take any legal allegations against you. Good bye and take care." The number was 415-506-1286 from Novato, CA. This is a scam. According to the IRS website, if IRS needs to contact an individual, it will be in letter form through the US Mail. I filed a complaint with the FCC. According to FCC's website, there are multiple scams from scammers purporting to be with IRS.
Over the coarse of the last thirty days I have been receiving multiple phone calls from this number asking me if I have payday loans I want to consolidate. I have repeatedly, politely declined and asked that they not contact me anymore. This afternoon a man called and started asking the same question. I again politely declined and asked that he remove my number form the list. He then made an extremely vulgar statement to me and hung up. I called back several times before he stopped hanging up. I told him that I would the California State Attorney's office and the FTC. While I cannot understand his broken English well enough to understand the name of his company, I do find, by searching the phone number online, that I am certainly not the first person to have this type of problem with him.
