The original call was from 801-736-9999. A message was left instructing me to call this number.
Here's what I posted on 800notes for the originating number:
~~~
Message was text-to-speech (computer generated) and said the following:
"This call is a official final notice call from IRS. The reason of the call is to inform you that IRS has filed a lawsuit against you. To know more information call immediately our IRS department number 520-353-4723. I repeat 520-353-4723."
Reminder: The IRS uses the USPS to inform people of lawsuits, not the telephone. Even if the IRS did contact people by phone, the certainly wouldn't leave a voice message without specifying who the message was for or giving some sort of reference number.
I have to believe this was generated by a foreigner due to the slight irregularities in wording and the use of computer-generated text-to-speech (probably to hide an accent or poor English.)
Finally, the phone number they said to call back is provided by an Arizona VOIP carrier. (BROADVOX-CLEC, LLC - AZ)
As a VOIP, it can be used by anybody anywhere in the world.
Received a voicemail message. Claiming final notice from irs law suit against me to call this number so I did this morning and got a person that did not speck every good English, so ii asked to speck to someone else, got the same thing, If it is the irs you would think there would be someone you could understand... Complete Scam. Be Careful.....................

To call this number 520-353-4723, When I called to day got an Arabian specking person that I could barely understand, so I asked him if I could speck to someone that I could understand, after a brief pose, got the same person, I told him again to give me some one I could understand if they were the IRS, he hung up on me.
