Yes, you should call back immediately with your pertinent details, confirm your SSN#, Bank Accounts (For Garnishment),
and Date of Birth. That is the only way you may stave off the IRS from attacking you.
Our home phone was called by a Sausalito CA # 415-944-2722, early this morning with a message to call the IRS and speak with Officer Nickie Johnson. When I finally called back I talked to a hispanic sounding man who told me we were being sued by the IRS for money we owed. He said we should get a lawyer etc. He even went on to say that police were coming to my door in an hour and a half. I asked why we never received any word about this via the mail. He said a person came to our door twice and we weren't home. He kept repeating our address and what my name was to make it seem I was really the one in trouble. So glad I googled the phone and found these other posts!
My initial msg was from Ms. Johnson. When I called back I spoke with a man who identified himself as Mark White, IRS officer #971248. I was told I owed $4251 as the IRS had audited me from 2007-2013. I was told I was in violation of 3 serious offenses.1. IRS rules and Regs, 2. Deficiency in income tax and 3. Stealing taxes from the U.S. Govt. I was then told in 30-45 mins a man named Bob Marshall from the state courts would be at my door to serve me with court papers, take me into custody for 7 days and next wed. I would be taken to prison to serve 5ys/80 days and have a $25000 fine against me and in the interim I would have my house, car, credit cards, debit cards and bank account seized. I asked to speak with his supervisor as I couldn't completely understand him, he had a heavy Hispanic accent. He was very hostile, refused and kept threatening me with prison and loss of personal possessions. He had an old address on me and kept asking me to give him info to update their files. He got very angry when I refused stating I had already filed my taxes and the IRS had all my updated info. At the end of the conversation, I called local law enforcement and was told this is a scam. I reported this to the above link (Thank you Slim for providing that) This really makes me mad. What if I was a senior or had trouble with English and was intimidated into giving info or money. These people are pieces of poop! (pardon my language)
