I have gooten this call several times, i finally called the number back, the same moron answered that left the message. He identified himself as an officer for the IRS. I relpied "IRS huh!" in my most sarcastic voice. The moron started cussing at me and trying to talk trash, I finally asked him to come see me we will talk, he continued to swear and talk trash. I finally, it's ok, I am going to get you! If anyone knows where these morons may be, please let me know. It is a Florida number, but I doubt they are anywhere in Florida. I would love to meet "officer Eric Foster", lol, i have a gift i would love to give him. It is American made :)

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. It 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 usually a lot of appeals. All determinations of tax liability are subject to appeals. All contacts by the IRS are initiated by US mail.
I keep getting this caller to my cell number. I have not applied for a loan, which they keep saying I did. I answered the phone twice and get hung up on and when I try to return the calls the number does not work. They have called me 4 times already today and leave messages about a loan.
