Kevin Mason called me! But he had a foreign accent. It was a recording, something about a US enforcement action, I should call back right away. Glad I found 800notes instead.
It's last year's IRS SCAM. This story has made TV news headlines, as of late. If they find just ONE SUCKER, they've made a bundle. From what the news stated, they've made MILLIONS with this SCAM. They'll ask you to make out the amount due to IRS, when - in fact, it should be the UNITED STATES TREASURY DEPARTMENT. NMRB blocked this one, after one ring. My question is, why aren't the candidates making this an issue? Hell - This is just as bad as Trump's tax returns and Clinton's pant-suits.
The IRS does not initiate contact via a phone call, they first send postal letters.
The IRS does not threaten arrest.
The IRS does not demand immediate payment over the phone.
The IRS does not ask for Credit card, Debit card, or prepaid money card information, at all.
It is a scam ran by offshore criminals attempting to trick you into sending them money.
Hang up and report the call here:
