I called the number about 20 times. They barley speak English and sound Indian or middle eastern. They tried their best to cuss me when they figured out I knew it was a scam. They couldn't even do that right. Lol. Anyway please be aware that the IRS never contacts over the phone. They send letters only and let you call them. Generally they don't file charges or use the legal system either. The real IRS has the power to levy and garnish without it.
I received a call with a recorded message from this number. Message stated that the IRS has filed a law suit against me and I should call them at the same number right away. Since I knew it was a scam - I called to find out what type of information they were surfing for. They can't speak English very well and when challenged they say it is the Audit department and when continued to be challenged they hang up.
Received a voicemail to call 509.588.7318 about a lawsuit with the IRS. Basically the same experience as what the others described when I returned the call. They barley speak English, sounded Indian or middle eastern. However, they do have caller id because I was using a business phone to return the call and they asked if I was that person. When I told them I knew it was a scam they hung up. And as Ace said... Anyway please be aware that the IRS never contacts over the phone. They send letters only and let you call them.
