Don't know what the caller ID said and I don't answer calls from whom I don't know the caller anyway. The voicemail was a recorded computer voice beginning in the middle of a message. The message said .... "Is filing a lawsuit against you to get more information about this case file please call immediately on our department number at 601-228-4533. I repeat 601-228-4533. Thank you. " As I said the message starts in the middle as if they want you to think you've missed some part of the recording and perhaps you didn't get the company name. So that you might be scammed into thinking it's important enough to call the number back. America please don't be scammed by this number. No one is going to sue you. If you research this number it is not linked to any company name. It is linked only to a bunch of phone number list of unidentified numbers which is where the scammers Fishers criminals get telephone numbers to use for the robots to call us over and over all day long. Don't fall for- it don't answer -it don't call it back -it's a scam.
I also received a call from this number ... Pure scam ... Man that answers when I called back said Division of IRS. It was very hard to inderstand him but I askes him why calling and for who. he wanted my name wich i decline to give him. This is very annoying . If it really was the IRS I think they would norify us by mail or actually have a professional well spoken individual contact us.
Total scam. Originates in either India or Pakistan. Block and ignore. DO NOT RETURN THE CALL!

I’m an Enrolled Agent with the IRS (Inactive). IRS does not initiate contacts by phone. US mail only. IRS does not file lawsuits. IRS has enough administrative authority under the IRS Code and related regulations to collect all taxes lawfully due the federal government. Court action, if any is handled by the DOJ and all parties are entitled to legal assistance if it is a criminal matter. But--tax disputes are for the most part civil matters. 90% of all IRS tax disputes are settled administratively. IRS has absolutely no authority to call on local law enforcement for anything. Local law is never involved in IRS tax disputes. IRS does not threaten to involve local law enforcement or to arrest you for nonpayment of federal taxes. IRS has no powers of arrest as related to ordinary tax disputes. Having a deficiency in taxes owed by way of audit is NOT a crime. IRS does not cold call anyone and demand immediate payment of money. IRS does not ask for financial information over the phone. IRS does not accept Green card money paks or Itunes cards or similar for payment in any case. No one is prosecuted for ordinary tax disputes. IRS has absolutely no authority over anyone's professional license. Professional licensing is handled by state governments. Yes, levies on property to satisfy an existing tax obligation do occur, but only after a very long period of negotiation. And yes, liens are placed on individuals but usually after a lot of negotiation and a failure to reach a settlement. All determinations of tax liability are subject to appeals. All contacts by the IRS are initiated by US mail.
