What a Joke! Claiming to be from IRS, (by the way the call would be displayed as Internal Revenue Service and not IRS) and I have a serious claim against me and a warrant will be issued for my arrest if I do not call back immediately. The accent was middle eastern and heavy. I am tempted to call back and play the game stating I am on the run what should I do? LOL
This number left a voice mail - Called to tell me that I have been accused of tax fraud and that a warrant will be issued. They claimed to be from the IRS with a HEAVY Indian accent.
I was called a few minutes ago. Sure sounds like a scam to me. I answered but did not say anything...simply hung up. Caller asked me to call back but I did not catch the number I was supposed to call back to.
Interesting note: Number that shows up via caller ID was legit...703-756-6663 is the number for the local IRS office in Crossroads, VA. I guess there is a way to spoof phone numbers these days.
