I got the same exact call! Scared me to death! I called back and talked to some guy with an Arabic accent. He told me his name was Jose Garcia. Ha! He referenced my maiden name which makes me nervous. He couldn't give me any info except that there were errors on my 2005,2006 and 2008 taxes resulting in a fraud claim. He talked about some lawyer representation but I cut him off and told him I needed to call back because I don't know anything about this and I needed to call the IRS to find out. I don't know what the scam is really about (if I believed them and followed through) because I never gave them a chance to get any info other than I confirmed my maiden name, and they never asked me for any money...does anyone know what they are scamming??
