They call and pretend they are the IRS and that you owe money and that you have been avoiding paying it so now your accounts will be freezer and you will be arrested by local authorities within a certain time frame. Ours was 1.5 hours. They did not ask for personal information but I think they were waiting for me to go for their story and offer to pay my debt over the phone. I called the IRS to verify this procedure and there was no penalty or debt and they would in fact never conduct business in such a manner.
