I received several calls from the same recording saying I was involved in a federal case and then I needed to call him back. I have blocked the number since he has left 3 messages in a row now.

I called the number back and the person who answered identified himself as Steve Jackson instead. He gave a badge number 115377. He told me there was a mistake on my 2010 and 2011 tax returns and they had sent letters and I hadn't responded, so now there was a freeze on my bank account, my drivers license was cancelled, and there was a lien on my house, and he was going to have an office come to my house in 45 minutes and arrest me. He never asked for money, which worried me and made me think this might actually be for real. We argued for about 10 minutes, which surprised me, and then we both hung up. I'm still waiting to be arrested.

Starting at 7:45 a.m., received 5 calls during the morning stating I was being prosecuted for money I owed the IRS. It was a man with an Indian/middle eastern accent. It is a recorded message and you cannot speak to someone.

If scammers have tried this scam on you, you should also contact the Federal Trade Commission and use their “FTC Complaint Assistant” at FTC.gov. Please add "IRS Telephone Scam" to the comments of your complaint.
