Received a call from this number. Called the number back from another number and same thing occurred....man with heavy Indian accent answered the phone "Internal Revenue Service may I help you?" I was laughing as I hung up the phone. Unlike Microsoft and other large corporations I seriously doubt the US Government is farming out calls to a call center in Delhi.
Received a call from this number. Supposedly the IRS and I am about to be arrested for tax fraud. NOT the IRS, I had an audit a couple years ago. They write to you, you call back a toll-free number. They are polite, helpful and,don't threaten. They also speak American English very well. Fraud
Seems like the same kind of thing as above... I received a call from this number today. I did not answer, but the voicemail message they left stated they had "received a legal petition notice concerning a tax fraud against [me]." That's literally the entire message. Nope! Don't think so-- number blocked now! Thanks to all who have shared info on these oh-so-obvious, blatant, scammers.
