so after I discovered these guys are just complete a**holes trying to get your money, I called them agin and when they said IRS I said "this is not the number to the IRS"
they said "you don't know that "
and I said "I do, and this is not the number"
so the guy said F*%$ you B*tch and then called me an a** hole. I told him he did a great job with using his engrish to fraud people, and if that didn't work, insult them.
Report the Calls to the real IRS here:
•report the incident to the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration at 800-366-4484.
•You can also file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission at FTC.gov. Add "IRS Telephone Scam" to the comments in your complaint.

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.
This number is in GLENDALE CA. The IRS does NOT make Collection calls - as mentioned by CWG40 above.
Even if they did, they would NOT be calling from GLENDALE CA and definitely not via a CALL CENTER in INDIA!
Make note of this number and next time it calls, DO NOT answer - let it ring. NEVER answer any calls from unknown numbers. A city / state caller ID is ALWAYS a scam - never answer those calls.
