Scam call received twice on my cell phone, claiming to be from the IRS, but instead they call it the "Internal Revenue Service Department". Broken English, very difficult to understand. I received two messages, one with a female voice, one with a male voice, both with exactly the same script. Appears to be computer-generated. I assume this is a phishing scheme or a scheme to get you to call using your cell phone so they can charge you for phantom services without your knowledge. Do not call them back!!

Scam call claimimg to be IRS

Just got a message on my voicemail from this number.  It's been the 4th call today.  IRS scam.  So annoying!

Received 3 messages on my cell phone.  Hard to understand. Claiming to be an Internal Revenue Service Officer. Very threatening.  I asked a CPA and he said the IRS doesn't call you on the phone, they send you forms in the mail.  Don't call them back.

Scam call received on my phone in Texas, two times from the above phone number, claiming to be from the IRS, from a male's voice,  supposed to be from a person whose English is Second Language.   He left message one my phone to call back in this number.  

They called me twice yesterday and once tkday. When I picked up the first call yesterday they asked for "nellie" and I told them thru had the wrong number. They called back and I sent it to voicemail. The message said that he was a police officer and that if he did not hear back from my attorney or from me then he wished me good luck and he could not help me. I got the same message from the same person today. It was a recording because it wad the exact message from yesterday. Creeps!

I received 2 scam phones from the phone number above for 2 different days. The message is as same as one that most people here wrote. I telephoned back to him, and asked him to tell his name, and the company he worked for after he asked for my name, and address. He refused to give me his name, the company's name, and he hung up the telephone on me.

Abusive caller, claiming to be from IRS, asking for a host of personal information. When asked for proper credentials, started swearing & threatening.

And you are a real FRAUD!!!  Back to the boiler room  slums.  You fail as a shill.

Perhaps people DO understand, and are not being mislead by some shill's statements... particularly shills who have to SHOUT to get their minuscule brain cells to work.

Fact:
---> The IRS does not "cold call" people.  Initial contact is always by snailmail.

There is a fairly common IRS or "tax scam" being practiced by scammers in both Canada and the USA.
USA tax payers should read this:

Note particularly the links at that site, warning of the scam!

They called my Mom! And became very threatening. Saying they were from the IRS and that she was going to be arrested. Don't call them back.

We received a very rude call from 202-241-1435. The caller stated he was officer eric foster from the irs... now why would an officer call from the irs!! And he never addressed us by name!!! Something the irs does not do. Smarten up stupid thieves! !!

The caller left a note on answering machine by name Eric officer from IRS audit. I am not wasting my time to call him back.

Are they kidding....ditto with these other people.  You can barely understand their English (gee, IRS, can you afford better?), plus the same voice (Indian accent) called twice and used 2 different names - P-L-E-A-S-E.....do you think us Americans are that dumb!!!!

Got a threatening phone message from an Officer Eric Foster claiming to be from the Internal Revenue Service Department, asking me or my attorney to return the call immediately as the situation is extremely time sensitive. He said this in broken English, and directed me to call 202 241-1435 and wished me good luck as the situation unfolds on you.

The fact that their English is VERY broken, I'm surprised they can spell "IRS"

I got the same call.. Should I be worried?
