Received a call from a lady with heavy Indian accent at 425-577-7737 claiming to be IRS and requested that I called back at that same number and to ask for Michael Johnson. When I called back, this Michael Johnson, also with heavy Indian accent, picked up the phone and started his made-up story of my owing Taxes and that they were about to file criminal charges against us (Scary stuff!). When I questioned his authenticity and why his caller ID didn't identify them as IRS, he hung up. A few minutes later, he called again, this time with a caller ID of Internal Revue Service and IRS' 1-800 number. When I asked him who he wanted to talk to, he said some unrecognizable name. When I told him that there was no such person here, he kept asking for my name. I wouldn't give it to him. Obviously, he was confused about his calling list. As IRS website cautioned, these scammer are able to spoof the IRS toll-free number. Watch out! FBI should try to shut them down immediately.
