This number has called twice today; indicating they were from the fraud division of the govt. They wanted me to call a return number to avoid further action of a law suit pending. I did not get the return number; as I have been called by several of these creeps. I will not give them the satisfaction. Later tried the above number and got an all circuits busy; and also a ring no answer. This is fraud; just using the common criminal phone number to try to get someone to bite. FRAUD!!
I just recieved a call from this number and it was a recording letting me know it was the IRS calling and someone filed a lawsuit against me and to call them right away. It was a very strange message. They told me to call them back at this number.
I’m an Enrolled Agent with the IRS (Inactive). IRS does not initiate contacts by phone. US mail only. IRS does not file lawsuits. 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. If LE is necessary, US Marshals do the job. 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 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.

I got a call from a male's voice with a thick accent in my voicemail today 4/26/15 from 646-502-6605 telling me that a lawsuit has been filed against me in the county court. Didn't even tell which court. He advised to call him back. I didn't and googled his number right away. I am surprised that there were several complaints against this number and nothing was done. Most of the complaints were all about going to the computer. I guess mine is different scam since the computer scam didn't work.
