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.
Got the same IRS Julie Smith recorded voice scam call twice today. Here is the message my phone captured: "Time sensitive Julie Smith from Internal Revenue Service and the hotline to my division is 4155061286. I repeat it's 4155061286. Don't disregard this message and do return the call before we take any action against you. Goodbye and take care"
