I also received the call from this no. With strong indian accent that guy said he was Jim Parker and is doing criminal investigation against me. I am not planning to call him back. I just want everybody to be aware that this is a fraud call.
I got a threatening call from this number from officer Jim Parker saying I need to call back as this is the National Bureau of Crime Investigation and I owe 209086 dollars to IRS.
When I said I do not make that kind of money and pay my taxes every year, he fumbled and said they do not have any further details but kept checking If I wanted to pay the money.
Your caller was nothing but a FRAUD! I could go on. I could elaborate. That's not necessary. Common sense always prevails. Use yours. The IRS doesn't call with imaginary claims. The IRS doesn't call at all. EVER!
The only time an agent of the IRS would ever call you is if a case has been previously discussed. That would ONLY be after communication has been initiated by mail. ALWAYS! NO EXCEPTIONS! EVER!
That's it! Case closed. The foreign frauds using this scam are underestimating your intelligence. Prove them wrong!
Be Safe. Be Aware.

Just received a call from this no. Person with a strong accent said he is a crime investigator and I have a criminal investigation going on. I do not pick up phones with unfamiliar numbers. I know I don't have any investigation going. I knew it is a fraud. This is third times I had received this type of call. How to block such calls as they use different tel no. ?
