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.
I got two calls today. Both on my recorder from officer Julie smith. How can we stop her?
why can't the phone company disconnect the line based on fraud? Where is the DA on this?
Just to chime in to add my voice to the group. Returned home to a vmail from the mysterious officer Julie Smith of the IRS with the same exact message as everyone else. I urge everyone to spend a moment to report all these calls on donotcall.gov The more reports from the same number the higher the chances of action against whoever is doing this. Tracking and prosecuting these scammers is like whack-a-mole. It troubles me that clearly it works or they would go away.
