Forgot to add - my second call also let me know that they (the IRS - so government identify fraud here) had sent out 2 letters but they had been returned undelivered.
Moron with Asian accent claiming that there is a " non-bailable warrant"( too funny) from the IRS on my name. No mention of the name. Call them back at this number....so they can find out what your name is and find out what your SS# is. How stupid to leave a message like this.
Toll call (I'm in Arcadia CA) so I used an outgoing land line that gives my firm a lower national rate... I asserted his parents would be mortified if they knew what this fellow I was talking to was doing to try to earn a living. He seemed to be weak in his knowledge of English and welcomed the criticism. If I wasn't a CPA working on 04/08/15, I would have enjoyed chatting with this person a little longer. Well... Back to work.
My 2nd report here on the same scam. An East Indian voice left me an ominous, cut-off, scripted message saying that a lawsuit for Tax Fraud has been filed against my social security number and that a warrant for my arrest has been issued. They also left an IDENTICAL message a few days earlier but with call back # 559-328-2373. One number was CA and the other number for VA -- landlines both of them, clearly in a telemarketing environment. BEWARE !
