Received a robo call saying "This is the IRS and your are being sued" Please call... 202-738-4649. Called them, and they said "This is the IRS"; I told them sounds this phony, what's your name? They said "Or really" and hung up. Called back a while later, and they said "MF'er, who are you, where are you MF'er"... knew for sure this was not legit. Don't even bother calling these people back; it is a scam and honestly, they sound pretty mean... I have reported this to the IRS and Department of Treasury Fraud Unit. Be Careful!

SCAM! Indian accented people claiming to be the IRS. They left a threatening message saying you will be arrested if you do not call them back at 804 445 2030. DO NOT FALL FOR THIS! DO NOT GIVE THEM ANY INFORMATION! Block the number if you can. Then go to the Treasury and the FTC and report them. Don't be their next victim and contribute to their paycheck!

Also getting the same message but the number I was given is 347-305-4165. I believe the IRS would send a certified letter if they needed to contact me so I looked up her name and found these reports. What a scammer!

Left message that I must call the number because the IRS is filing a lawsuit against me. (the real IRS writes!). Call came in on my kid's line. They never called me by name nor did they identify themselves by name. Woman caller said it was a final notice.

The caller did provide a name that I didn't catch and said she was from the IRS. I then asked her to give me her full name and ID number so I could verify by reaching her directly through the IRS. She then told me she didn't need to validate anything and so I hung up.
The IRS NEVER calls anyone, unless you have first contacted them and left specific instructions to call you back. NEVER divulge any information to someone who cold calls and tells you they are the IRS

Just got a call- didn't pick up. They left a message saying:
(It was a computer generated voice- not a live human or taped live human.)
"This is the IRS, the Internal Revenue Service. We have been trying to reach you. This is your final notice that we will be filing a lawsuit against you. Call 202-697-9396."
As I know I have filed all taxes, it is obviously a scam. Also, about 25 years ago, there was a year I didn't file- and I know from that, that they will send you letter after letter if they have any kind of issue with you.
I may call back just to screw with them! They definitely called the wrong person!
;)
(Actually, that was the # in the msg...my caller ID is actually not working- so I'm not positive that was the number it came from, I just assumed. I need to call phone co. today to get the ID back on. I have been getting a lot of "hang-ups" recently- as I haven't been picking up since I haven't been able to see the #. People I know call my cell- nobody really calls my home # anymore- so maybe it's been them trying to get me on the line. Good luck with that!)

A message was left for my deceased Mother. The caller had a heavy Asian accent, and some parts of the message were unintelligible. He claimed to be "Mike Cooper" of the Internal Revenue Service, and he had some "time sensitive" issue with a tax return.
I highly doubt that the IRS would have somebody with an unintelligible accent make a call like this.
The call back number he left was 202-506-9505
