A person with a very heavy accent saying he was attempting to alert me to a problem I have with the U.S. Treasury Dept. called twice within 5 minutes and left messages both times. I blocked the number but saw he called several times again.
A person with a very heavy accent saying he was attempting to alert me to a problem I have with the U.S. Treasury Dept. Said his name was Steve Martin. I called back and another woman with an accent told me my accountant could not help, and I would be arrested within 30-45 minutes at my home.
they called me twice and left voice mail. They said I would be arrested. I called them back and said I was turning myself in - where do I go? They hung up on my 3 Times - damn no free meals in jail then - guess I need to get back to work. I was going to use a get out of jail free card if I did not like jail.

Do consider maybe getting a call blocking device or phone.. You can google them and many are around $50.00 or so.
Steve Martin was very busy today. He called me two times also, 11:04am and 12:22pm EST. Both times threatened me with a federal criminal offense. As if I'd actually talk to him or even call back. I know a scam when I hear one.
