Just got off the phone with Jay Harris (very foreign accent). He told me that I owed $2029.86 for tax year 2012 and that there was warrant for my arrest. Oh and he stated he was with the United Department US Treasury -- even had him repeat this a couple of times.
Talked with him for about 10 minutes trying to get things straightened out -- yep, he got the warm fuzzy feeling!!!!! Wished I had my recorder on for this one.
He stated that I could clear things up today by providing my CC and I explain to him that I don't have any credit cards and asked if I could just send a check made out the US Department of the Treasury instead and he said no.
Asked him if the Tax Return that I filed was for a Single person or Married filing jointly. He told me that I wasn't married and couldn't file jointly with anyone. I've been married for well over 20 years!
I finally told him that I had not worked at all during the last seven years and could not possibly owe the money and he tried to tell me that they would get the money owed one way or another.
Once I asked him to verify my mailing address and the last 4 of my SS# he hung up. Now that was a surprise!!!!! Bless his heart!!! Fool, I tell you, Fool.
The SCAM calls are getting worse and worse. I normally don't answer the unknown numbers and am glad I did on this one.
