Please DO NOT let these people worry you. NOBODY should call anyone about any pending money. Anyone can pretend as someone else. DO NOT WORRY... many people owe money to the IRS..... This is NOT new. Everything must be in a written format. You must NEVER give any personal information - cell phone, name, SS # etc and never acknowledge who you are to anyone on the phone. Ask them to see you in person...!!
So..... I suggest... play it safe. DONOT give out any information. For fun... just say that you are an IRS agent youself. Or even.... say you are a Federal Officer if you have to. Or make fun of them on the phone... That would be their last try. Good luck.
I received 2 of these calls today both with the same computer generated female voice and script. I knew it was bogus, but still needed to look it up online to be sure. I'm not going to waste my time on it.
call from 415 506 2397, stating same info about sheriff and arrest as mentioned above, 10 min ago. they know name and address, the guy did not state ssn so probably they dont know that.
