Officer Gary JOnes

I have received 3 calls today asking me to call 201-450-9010. Having heard about this scam, I have not called them back. I did however go to IRS.gov site that tells of the scam. The last time the call came in they actually left a message on my answering machine. You can call and report the incident to the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration at 1-800-366-4484 and file a complaint using the FTC Complaint Assistant. This information is found on the IRS.gov website.

Received message saying I needed to call 201-450-9010 before action was taken in the local courts. I had no idea what this was about and called back. Was told I was speaking to IRS Agent Gary Jones, badge #RM2556 (with an middle eastern accent) regarding a lawsuit action against me by the IRS for tax filings between the years 2008-2012, was I aware of this action? Informed me that I was being federally recorded on the call and that there were four federal counts against me. Was told not to interrupt and I could ask questions after he read the counts, and potential penalties. He also informed me that an IRS agent had attempted to deliver 35 courthouse documents in person to my home on three different occasions in 2014, but wouldn't say what the documents were titled. I was told that since they could tell I was a genuine type person, they were giving me this opportunity to clear this up via this phone call. If I refused they would send an officer out within the hour to arrest me and would be seeing me in court tomorrow morning. I then said I wanted to speak with an attorney as I didn't believe he was with the IRS since I'd not gotten anything in the mail, nor ever had any issues with my IRS filings. To which he replied, that he was in fact an IRS agent and I'd be seeing an officer within the hour since I was not willing to work with him. These fools need to be put away and never see the light of day. To scam someone is one thing, but scaring people like this is a whole different level of cruelty!

I received an automated call asking me to call back due to a lawsuit being placed against me. I know this is a scam but called back so I could get more information. They said they were from the IRS and gave me an Officer name of Gary JOnes with a Badge # RM2556. They said there were 4 serious charges the IRS was filing against me in a lawsuit. After a speech which I was not to interrupt, I was asked if I had any questions to which I told him I was in the middle of filing an online complaint against the number and surprise, surprise, he said thank you for calling and hung up!! There should be an extra punishment when trying to impersonate a federal agent should there be?? Going to social media next to make people aware.

I have filed a complaint with TIGTA, but was unable to give them the extent of the conversation do to limited comment space. "Officer" Gary robo message called again, but this time when I was ready to record my return call, they didn't answer and after two minutes of ringing I then got a busy signal. Go figure.
