I received a message on my home machine the other day, 01/28/15, while I was out, (the caller ID showed 'Richmond, VA'). A heavily 'Indian' accented man claimed to be an 'Officer' calling from "The IRS Fraud and Litigation Center" and I was in danger of being audited for "Tax Evasion". He claimed that I needed to call him ASAP or I would "be arrested for tax fraud." He claimed it was "urgent" for me to call immediately, 804-316-9471.
I checked with 'IRS.gov' and it is pretty clear on this being a scam for multiple reasons.
Just Google "IRS phone scam."
