I have received several calls from this number from a guy who says he is Derrick Brown from the IRS and that my husband must call back and ask for Michael Carter and gives a reference number. Although I am making payments to the IRS, I have the correct name and phone number to the gentleman at IRS who is facilitating me with our IRS claim. THIS IS A SCAM!
This number called and left me a "referral number" said it was urgent. I called and they spoken very broken English. Said they wanted the number for my attorney. I kept asking who they were and she said IRS. I don't her I wouldn't give a number out to someone just because they asked. She said, "Well you will be arrested in the morning" and hung up.
Rec'd same message as noted above from supposed "IRS" representative providing a reference code and demanding immeadiate response. Obviously a scam. Can't even speak English and wouldn't be able to even have a conversation without an interpreter. I would assume the IRS would make initial contact by mail. Not losing any sleep on this one.
