This man just called me and said he was from the IRS calling to collect a debt. Said I was about to be arrested and all my accounts frozen if I didn't pay immediately. Gave me a name and badge number to sound official. However, he was so rude and demanding that I thought something wasn't right. He knew my name and address which is pretty scary. I told him I'd talk to my tax guy and clear things up. He insisted that if I hung up, I'd be arrested immediately. I hung up on him and did some googling. I was correct. The IRS state on their website that they would never call and demand immediate payment. Be careful people!!!
