Dept of Legal Affairs

Heavy accent caller reading a script slowly. Message said this is Amy Taylor calling for First Name Last Name. First name this is an important call to inform me of enforcement action being taken against me. I should call back 760-790-4132 with my attorney or I will be in a legal mess. Repeated phone number to call. Then stated looking forward to hearing from me and to have a blessed day. 100% phony scam call. I did not return the message. I've seen this name and phone number posted on this page and have heard about this scam before.

Caller said that the police were coming to put my husband in jail. My response was "you are such a scammer"... The caller then replied, "ok, we will put you in jail too"...

I had a message on my answering machine from the Dept. of Legal Affairs that I couldn't understand much of what was said because of a heavy foreign accent. The caller said he was Shawn Williams & his phone #323-786-1317. I reluctantly tried calling the # getting a machine asking to leave my # and I'd be called back. I hung up.

Keith "Maatin" called for my daughter suggesting that she call back right away because enforcement action had been started against her and this was her and this was her werbal (verbal!) notification! If she was too busy to call back, she better get a lawyer, because she was in for a big legal mess!!! Sounded like he had to pause for someone to give him the call back number! But he did tell her to have a "Blessed Day"... how thoughtful of this lowlife!!!!!

She was reading a script, heavily accented, enough that I had to listen to the message twice to get the information. Message on my machine this afternoon, that this was my verbal notice to the mailing I already received regarding the legal action being taken against me. When I called the number back I got an answering machine that said it was the Dept. of Treasury. We too are on the Do Not Call List and do not give our number out, frustrating to have this happen!

The number 213–4 37–6106 originated from Los Angeles. The caller stated they were calling about legal affairs and we need to retain an attorney and call back. I reversed looked up the number and found that it is a scam number like my intuition told me and I have deleted the number.

Guy's a joke, Google him and he's on a bunch of other websites. I think I'm going to ask for an address on where I can send the money, tell him I'm going to send it and see what he says. If he does give it to me (and I'm pretty sure that won't happen), I'll tell him I'm going to send it right away.... I wonder how long he will wait until he calls me back:-)

Liar told me I was in trouble with the Treasury Dept. and mentioned a letter sent a month ago. False. Then he advised me about getting an attorney. I told him 3 times I had no idea what he was talking about. Oh really? he said, surprised. Heavy accent, obvious liar from the start. I called the police who referred me to the Attorney General. They were happy to take the information, including 510-682-2736, and advised me to hang up quickly next time rather than encourage them with conversation. Any conversation encourages them to call back. Also, recommended I warn others. Losers! Find honest work!

Ditto - exactly on "NotFallingForThis on 01 15 2015. He had an East Indian accent. I did not return the call, but have kept the recording.
Calling the police does not help -

Had 2 messages on Jan 7th, 2015 to call as soon as possible. Her name was Lisa Davis from the Dept of Legal Affairs. She had a heavy Indian accent. Had to listen to messages a few times to try and understand. They gave me the number to call them back 916-872-9423. I knew it was a scam.

I got the same call. Almost verbatim. Obviously reading from a script. I did not answer but he left that message.

"John Syder" from the "IRS Department of Legal Affairs" left a voice message on my home phone saying an "enforcement action" would be taken against me for improperly filed back taxes. His thick Indian accent was obvious. I retuned the call...(909)666-5726 and got another Indian gentleman who laid out a big scam about how much legal trouble I was in. Complete nonsense! When I asked to speak with someone who spoke English without an accent he refused. I told him I knew this was a scam, to leave me alone, and I hung up!

A person with an accent identifing themselves as James Wright from the Dept. of Legal Affairs said that this was a verbal notification that law enforcement actions were being taken against me. I was to have my attorney call or there would be a legal mess. Strangely they end with "Have a blessed day". I have received a call like this before (the script was word for word) and know it is a scam. I did not call back.

Received call saying that I had legal action against me regarding taxes not paid in 2009. I was not to discuss this matter with anyone or I would be arrested immediately. Wanted me to not disconnect the phone while I went to the bank and withdrew cash then I was to get government vouchers at Albertsons or CVS (Reload it or Vanilla reload) it was not to have any visa or master card logo. During the call kept getting 911 emergency call that was a warning that I would be arrested if I did not comply with demands.

I received a similar message Nov. 13, 2014, from a man claiming to be Andy Parker with the Department of Legal Affairs. I, too, could barely understand the message due to a heavy accent, possibly Indian. He said he was calling with regard to "imposemnent actions that have been started on your name." The phone number he gave was 323-786-0626. Needless to say, I did not and will not call it.

I got the exact same message from the same, heavily accented Jordan Miller with the same phone number and most likely word for word message; even the part about having my retained attorney call or I'll have a big legal mess and the have a blessed day!!
So glad this is a fraud, but still, what a waste of my time!

Received a call from a thickly accented "Jordan Miller" who said he was from the Dept. of Legal Affairs & calling about an "enforcement action that has been started in your name". If I'm too busy to call back, my retained attorney can call instead & there will be a legal mess for me if I delay. He ended the call the same way a few others have reported, "have a blessed day, goodbye". The number he gave was (415)935-7074, I didn't call it because I wanted to research the department online first & find out what kinds of legal affairs they manage, since I'm currently not dealing with any serious troubles. I found no official websites, only more like this one warning of scams & fraud so, needless to say, I won't be calling Jordan Miller back!
