A person calling themselves Steve Martin has left 3! messages on my machine. He said:
“This is the second attempt to contact you. This is about an Enforcement Action from the Treasury Dept., and that if you do not contact them this will go to a Magistrate or a Grand Jury for a Federal Criminal Offense. I advise you to help us to help you. The contact number is 858-206-4546.”
(“Steve Martin” did not state my name or any other identifying information.)
(Does America even have “Magistrates”?)
(I wonder if “Steve Martin” works with John Belushi?)
I reported it (Via a FORM!) at the Treasury Inspector General Administration (http://www.treasury.gov/tigta/ on the internet) as Fraud. Apparently they get so many of these you actually fill out a specific form!
There was other information on their website that said the scammers called a lot during tax season, and that they were VERY AGGRESIVE and would say anything to get you to pay them. They said the Treasury Department would never ask for your identifying information and would never ask for money over the phone, and would always contact you by mail first. DO NOT CALL THEM BACK!
The 1-800 phone number at the Attorney General at (Financial Fraud Enforcement Task Force at www.stopfraud.gov .) said they were aware of the Treasury Impersonal Fraud (their mailbox was completely full from other complaints!
The internet listed the following information about the number:

Received two calls from the U.S. Treasury about legal action. So I called back and told them to come and get me, I'm waiting. They just hang up. No dialog. Disappointing. I was looking forward to a lively conversation, because we all know that Steve Martin is a wild and crazy guy. Do yourself a favor and don't even both with them.
