IRS does not file lawsuits. Court action, if any is handled by the DOJ and all parties are entitled to legal assistance if it is a criminal matter. But--tax disputes are for the most part civil matters. 90% of all IRS tax disputes are settled administratively. IRS has absolutely no authority to call on local law enforcement for anything. Local law is never involved in IRS tax disputes. IRS has no powers of arrest. If LE is necessary, US Marshals do the job. IRS does not cold call anyone and ask for money. IRS does not accept Green card money paks for payment in any case. No one is prosecuted for ordinary tax disputes. IRS has absolutely no authority over anyone's professional license. Professional licensing is handled by state governments. Yes, levies on property to satisfy an existing tax obligation do occur, but only after a very long period of negotiation. And yes, liens are placed on individuals but usually after a lot of negotiation and a failure to reach a settlement. All determinations of tax liability are subject to appeals. All contacts by the IRS are initiated by US mail.
This call is the IRS scam call - got my adrenaline going for 2 mins until I googled the number and discovered other IRS scam numbers. Add this one to the list. Guy says he is Alex Cooper - but has an indian accent!
I didn't get a phone call, but i did get a copy of an arrest warrent without a name of the person to be arrested, me. It looks official except it states that a financial compromise is possible. To call them and set up an application for an installment plan. I called them the first time I got an email from them. It us a scam called a debit collection scam according to the Better Business Bureau.
This is the third time i have gotten an email threatening an arrest warrent. When i told them that i was going to consult my attorney before i paid tgem anything. Mr. Wilson got very angry that i didn't fall for tgeir tactics and told me that tge warrant would be issued tge next day. I told him to go ahead and hung up on him, mid sentence.
