Computer call on 3/23/2016 around 2 PM EST. Message that a lawsuit was being filed against me and to call the number before it went to court! No other info is provided. I think its a fraud and if anyone calls this number might get billed for some long distance international call.
It is fraud, but the long distance charge would be the least of your worries. These foreign crooks are looking for a lot more than a few measly dollars for a toll call.
IRS Scam:
The IRS does not need to sue anyone. They send you first class letters delivered by the Post Office. Several of them. Ignore those, and they then send certified letters that you need to sign for. Again delivered by the Post Office. Ignore those and they simply freeze your bank accounts and anything else you own. If they can do that, then why would they bother with a court case that might take them years before they get in front of a judge? They also do not bother arresting people for a few thousand dollars for the same reasons I have already given.
