Your friend is wise-do not answer them and never call them back-just block them. I block area codes in advance-if I don't know anybody there, why do I need it.
Threatened me with legal action, i will have to appear before a grand jury or federal magistrate if I won't take their calls due to owing money to the government.
I got a call from the IRS saying I would be toss in Jail if I didn't sent them money. I didn't believe it called my accountant and he told me that its a scam and to hung up on these bums. These heartless people will do anything to get your hard earn money the bozo.
Hey Boozes these bums have called me a number of times, like you I dislike these calls so finally I block them. Your right about one thing there scammer.
