I got a voicemail from this number by someone names Adam Scotts, saying that he is calling on behalf of IRS and I have unpaid taxes, I should have my attorney call them back or there will be serious consequences and wished me good luck!! I called back the number, and a guy names Gary answered, knew my name and address, and said i have so-so tax amount I owe the IRS from years 2010-2012. It is a very mechanical voice, almost sounds computerized. Talks in a threatening tone, and says you need to be present in the court tomorrow. And said something to the effect that you need to have lawyer call me back in one hour. Or else your bank accounts can be sealed and property confiscated. I checked online and other people have received such calls. I am just glad I checked the number online before calling my husband frantically. Stay smart people!! Don't fall prey to such calls.
I also received calls (3 times in 3 hours) with messages sounding like a computer is calling in a male voice with an accent saying "Hello this call is from IRS that's Internal Revenue Service. The very second you receive this message I need you or your regent attorney of record to return the call. The issue at hand is extremely time-sensitive. This is Officer Adam Scott and my number is 716-253-1440. Now don't try to disregard this message and do return the call. If you don't return the call or ifI don't hear from your attorney either th e only thng I can do is wish you good luck as the situation unfolds on you. Thank you and goodby." I did not return the calls because 1) the IRS sends letters, and doesn't make phone calls; 2) no IRS agent has the time to call 3 times in 3 hours to leave the same message; and 3) the way this message was phrased sounds like it is from someone from another country. (what is a regent attorney of record?) DO NOT call this number back. Clearly this is a scam to scare people and/or bilk people out of their money.
