Just received a call from my elderly parents here at work. They just received a call from a woman with a thick accent, who called herself "David Cooper". They said her accent was African and that they could hardly understand her. Obviously, she is too stupid to realize that women in America are NOT named David!!! Somehow these people had my name associated with my parents phone number. This woman scared my elderly parents terribly by telling them that I was under investigation and to call her at (703) 879-7147. Glad I found this website! I will report the incident to the phishing link shown in the above post.
I received a message from a woman with an Indian accent - hard to understand. Similar to the other posts for this number, she mentioned the IRS and an affidavit against me. Said I need to call back before bad things happen to me.
First a woman with a heavy Indian accent called then a man with a heavy Indian accent starts to tell me he's from the IRS. I know it's a scam so I tell him to stop calling me and I will be reporting him. Another call. This time a Hispanic male claiming to be an IRS agent so I told him that I'm with the Department of Immigration and asked if he came here illegally in order to commit fraud. He said yes ma'am. I let him know authorities will be coming for him. Another call (all the same day) Heavily accented Indian male asks for my husband. I told him that he's dead. This s.o.b. then claimed to be his best friend Shaun. I let him know that my husband didn't know anyone named Shaun who works for the IRS and commits fraud.

Got this call from 703-879-7147. Sounded like she was from India. She said her name was Amy Brown. Said she was from the IRS in Washington DC. Said I was going to be arrested by my local sheriff for tax evasion. She had arrest warrent #'s, case #'s and reference numbers. She said I was in trouble for tax fraud. for the past 5 year 2008-2013. Said I couldn't talk to my husband before I paid them $. They were going to put a lien on my house, car, bank accounts, assests, wage benefits and sieze my passport and driver's license. She said they were going to throw me in prison for 5 years if I couldn't pay $91,000 after the trail. She said I owed $2993.87 from tax evasions. She said they had audited me. She said "Don't talk to your husband or any 3rd party because of____" at this point she wasn't making any sense at all, some sort of law that wouldn't allow me talk to my husband. Something about protecting him, not dragging him into it. I told her I couldn't pay her anything without talking to my husband first. She didn't like that and asked that I pay $300 now and just tell my husband it was an emergency. Of course my husband's not going to give me $300 for some unknown emergency.
