Man with difficult to understand accent said I or my attorney had to call the IRS about my tax return. Said it was a serious issue. I would expect the irs to use snail mail or registered mail.

Do consider getting a call blocking device or phone.. You can google them and many are around $40.00 or so.If its a cell phone, some already have call blocking, if not, there are free apps on the web that will work for some. You can google this. If you have a smart phone, there is a free app called call control. Iphones appear to have apps also. Another one is called Mr. Number.
Got called TWICE, a little over an hour apart. But I'm not at home, so I got the same automated message both times in my voicemail. I'll happily be reporting the calls. I've added the number to my block list, so they'll now just get a message that my number is disconnected.
Called twice within an hour of each other. Left an automated message both times stating I have committed tax fraud. Want to make sure everyone knows this is a scam!
