Yes, this is a scammer. They also call from 909-666-5681. http://philadelphia.cbslocal.com/2014/03/20/dont-fall-victim-to-irs-tax-scam-call/
Said they were from "The Legal Department of the US Treasury". They asked for me by name, so I listened for a moment longer than normal. They wanted my attorney information, and said they were going to have me arrested. I knew it was a scam, but called the non-emergency line at the police department since I had the scammer's number. Wanted to share their response: There is not much that can be done legally, because the fraudsters mask their phone numbers. What is most helpful to share this information with friends and family: They are after you to give personal information, and/or to buy a cash card to give them in exchange for whatever excuse they can devise. They can buy your name from any number of companies, or steal it from various sources, so please don't think that makes it legit. Some popular scams include: Pretending to be the IRS and asking you to pay your balance; Windows/Apple virus on your computer they are trying to fix and need a password. A long list of common frauds can be found on the right side of the FBI web page: http://www.fbi.gov/scams-safety/fraud
