- Strnj1| 3 repliesThis is a new one that's simply a variation of the "IRS Lawsuit" scam.
They try to sound just as menacing only the recording claims to be the "Treasury" which would be taking no such action to begin with...
They must be making a killing with these scams as they have multiplied like rabbits.
It's sad to think there are elderly or fools that get taken in by these people.- Caller: SCAM

Do consider getting a call blocking device or phone.. You can google them and many are around $40.00 or so.If its a cell phone, some already have call blocking, if not, there are free apps on the web that will work for some. You can google this. If you have a smart phone, there is a free app called call control. Iphones appear to have apps also. Another one is called Mr. Number.

https://www.straighttalkwirelessforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=6803&t=55006 - Anonym| 1 reply3:30 AM and got the same call! Woke my wife and I up. I do have a call blocker and this number went in as soon as I hung up. When is our gutless Congress going to step up and do something about these moron scammers. They better hope I never run into them or I'll do what Congress doesn't have the guts to do!

http://www.consumerfinance.gov/newsroom/ - Three Crosses| 1 replyI live in Las Cruces, New Mexico.
The person claimed to be Michell Jones from Legal Affair of Treasure Department with batch no. 9185.
The phone call said that there is a tax fraud against me.
It was threatening. I was worried.
Luckily, my husband was alert & figured out that it was a fraud right away.- Caller: Michell Jones # 9185

- Charlene replies to Three Crosseswhy would you even pick up the phone?
- Charlene replies to Tamianth| 1 replynomo robo is an amazing service and it's free...does a wonderful job of screening most calls
- RicjardVery much a [***] said she was from the irs
- Tamianth replies to CharleneExcept for one thing, sadly they do not work with all telephone company's. In most cases its just not available to those of us who would like to have it. Thus a call blocking device is our best resource and only recourse at this time.
- etReceived a call yesterday, did not answer. Looked up number found this site. So todsy I called the number and woman with indian accent answered irs i said oh Irish no she said internal revenue how can i help you. Then i hung up. Everybody call then back so they have to answer phones. I know it is better to ignore these calls but i would love to irritate the s.... out of them all.
- Caller: fake irs scam
- etOk so maybe i am just bored. I called the number back ten tmes and most of the time a woman answered, then a man. After a few more calls the man said you are an ass Mr. B..... my last name. Both people had the indian accent. They must have caller id or something. The last time (with another num same irs scam) a person on the 800 site said the numbers are routed so they do not know who is calling. At that time he kept asking me what my number was, not this time. Everyone keep calling.
- Caller: irs scam
- DSI got a voice mail two days ago with the same machine sounding guy treating to arrest me. What a joke.
- Tom L.Just received recorded message from a very authoritative U.S. sounding guy, whom is probably just trying to keep his job :)
As previously said by others, the 'low information voters' will probably buy into it!- Caller: Federal Agency
