This schmuck called yesterday 06/26/2014 and left a threatening voice mail message claiming to be Officer Brandon Williams with the IRS from 571-402-0022. Did not say our name or anything on voice mail. One simple google search led me here and to other pages. I called the POS back and cussed him, he hung up on me and now it says "all circuits are busy" so they have either moved on or just blocked me. I normally like to call (blocking my number) and play with them, wasting their time acting like I am going to give them what they need. I figure that is one less person they are able to steal from if I am wasting their time.
I found the website with the IRS to turn it over but they arent as concerned unless you have already fallen for giving them money. I find it upsetting that several of these call complaints are over a month old with the same number yet when you attempt to do anything and report them - no one wants to do anything unless you were financially impacted.
The same guy with an Indian accent called once again to say he was with the IRS.. He used the name Brian John. THIS IS A SCAM. They are targeting innocent ppl. They want you to send them a debit card with money you supposedly own in taxes and they say if you do not pay you will be arrested. ONCE again it is a scam. To stop the calls coming in you can block the numbers by simply dialing *60 on your phone and adding the numbers to your block list. If you owe the IRS, they inform you with a letter. Or your tax preparer will notify you that there is a problem. DO NOT give them any information. Hang up and block the calls. Even if you make a complaint, there is not much that can be done to prosecute these ppl. They change numbers and continue the calls.
I got the same message same name. Tried calling 571-402-0022 and got busy signal for 30 minutes. This a fraud, people with an accent and rude when he left a message. Also got a similar call from a 202 751-2566 number in DC, the message was a robo call. Message, voice message is computer generated.
Called the number for fun, just to see what the moron would say. He answered the phone "Internal revenue service". I said "this isn't the real IRS, because the real IRS doesn't contact by phone, only in writing". He said "Oh yes, it is the real IRS". I said "no, you're not, so why are you calling me?" The fool then says "Why am I calling you? Because I like your voice, that's why". Um, gross! Of course, I just hung right up. What a skeeve. Ick.
