This Is A SCAMMER !
Seattle based caller says that they are the IRS and need a payment today to settle an outstanding arrest warranty in connection with back taxes. Caller proceeds to ask for personal information such as social security number DOB, etc.
Caller gets increasingly irate if you ask questions or push back.
Total B.S. Don't give them any information; just hang up.

Told me I had committed tax fraud and the sheriff was on their way if I didn't comply. Told them to send me a certified letter, they hung up. No sheriff.

Recorded message from a woman saying the IRS is going to sue me and it is a final warning. I don't have any problems with the IRS, and I did not get a letter, and they have all my up to date contact information. There is a rat behind this call somewhere.

Message text as recorded on my machine by an automated robot call. "Hello, this call is officially a final notice from IRS Internal Revenue Service. The reason of this call is to inform you that IRS is filing lawsuit against you. To get more information about the case file please call immediately on our department #404-418-6621. I repeat 404-418-6621. Thank you.
First red flag - the IRS has real people call you to arrange a meeting.
Second red flag - When the IRS has called me in the past, my caller ID listed it definitely as Internal Revenue Service and it showed the phone number of the caller. When I received a message, they clearly stated the person and business name they were trying to contact, the case number, the specific agent in charge of the case, the verifiable IRS phone number, and hours of operation. The number 404-418-6621 does not show on caller ID -- it only reads UNKNOWN CALLER. The only time this happens on my service is if the person on the other end has blocked their information.
Third red flag - IRS will identify as a specific state IRS or Federal IRS and the city where they are located.
Fourth red flag - When I received a message from the real IRS, I have been given the first name and agent number of the caller; along with other vital identifying information. They also give the year of the return, along with the quarter of the year, the specific form number that has a problem, etc.
Fifth red flag - After having payments to IRS lost in the mail, every IRS document we file is handled online with a receipt. I would have received an e-mail stating that I missed a payment.
DO NOT RESPOND TO THIS CALL, they are pfishing for your personal information -- SS #, address, birthdate, etc. everything they will need to access all your data.

Caller said that they sent me a letter on April 20th about taxes due. They did have my home address. He said his name was Smit Martin. His IRS address was 77 K street, Washington DC 20002. He said that they were in the process of filing a law suit against me. I asked for his phone number (347-979-9320) and said I would call back because I was in a meeting.

Received a phone message this morning from 202-506-8063 saying that it was extremely time sensitive and urgent. I called back and they said they were the IRS. I asked his name several times but the connection was bad and I could not understand his Indian accent. He asked me for my name & I told him I knew he was the "Fake IRS". He hung up. I got a couple of the same calls about a month or two ago and reported them to the real IRS. The real IRS has NEVER called me and real IRS agents always give a badge number. THIS IS A SCAM. DON'T GIVE ANY PERSONAL INFORMATION! THEY WILL TRY TO GET MONEY OUT OF YOU WITH SCARE TACTICS SUCH AS THREAT OF ARREST FOR MONEY YOU DON'T REALLY OWE, LICENSE REVOKING & STATE ID DEACTIVATION!
