202-241-1694

Called me twice and hung up on me after I answered both times.

Called claiming they were an attorney, and a lawsuit had been filed against me. They then gave me a "case number" and told me that I had to call 855-893-9445 to get additional information. I called it just to see wha they had to say for themselves, both from my cell, and from my office landline. The number given was no longer in service. I then plugged it in on this site, and there are over 300 complaints that it is a call scam.

I'm betting this is their new number.

I have gotten a few calls from this number and they hang up. I did call it back today, and got a recording. I left a message to be removed from their call list. Now that I am reading this, I think I would have been smarter just to have them blocked.
They called my cell on July 27.15, July 25, 2015. July 24, 2015, July 21, 2015,

They called claiming they are a 3rd party calling for another party saying that i need to get in touch with  855 893 9445 gave me a case # said  they were serving papers i asked whats my address they continued sounded like he was from back east It is a SCAM..Im.not calling anyone

This is a new call......another scam.  I do not answer numbers that I don't recognize.  After reading comments....I'm glad I don't.

Report these calls to the FCC noting time received http://esupport.fcc.gov/complaints.htm

Rec'd call yesterday, 7/29/15.  My husband answered and they asked for him, claiming they were a process server.  My husband told them they had the wrong outfit and hung up on them.  Rec'd call today, 7/30, the man asked for my husband calling him by his first name.   I told them I wanted them to quit calling that I knew they were scam.  He told me he needed to serve papers.  I told him I felt like reporting him to the law  He said he wished I would since he had court papers. l said I needed to get some info from him so I could report him and he hung up.

keep getting calls from this phone # as well... don't people have better things to do..sorry scammers i'm working trying to pay my taxes i have none left over for lawsuits/child support/court hearings or anything else your trying to get!!!!

This number left a message when I did not respond to the call:

"I need you or your recent attorney of record to return the call. The issue at hand is extremely time sensitive. My name is Officer David Carter. I am not lying to my division is (202) 241-1694. I repeat. It's (202) 241-1694. Do not disregard this message and do return the call. If you don't return the call or if I don't hear from your attorney either, then the only thing I can do is wish you a very good luck as the situation badly unfolds on you. Again, this message is for you and this is Officer David Carter contacting you from the Internal Revenue Serve. Good bye and take care."

I have sent this to IRS and TIGTA for investigation of fraud.

Automated message saying the IRS has filed criminal charges against me and to call back immediately or face jail time...sure....

Received the same call.  Is this spam?  I am checking now so far have not talked to anyone who knows about this.

This is a debt collection/process server extortion scam, where they try to scare you into paying them money.

They mention that they have received a Fax document or some sort of complaint and that there is a pending legal matter or action about to filed against you to create the sense of urgency.  They tell you that they are a “process server” and cannot give you the particulars of the case since the file is sealed. This is simply ruse to get you to call another number (often with a made-up case number) where they will ask for money to “make it go away” (this is actually the same place, they work in teams, one pretending to be the server, and the other usually pretends to be a lawyer).  They threaten to serve you at home or at work.  They tell you that if they serve you at work they need a supervisor, security, or HR person there as a witness, hoping that will cause you to panic over the alleged embarrassment of being served at work.  They also tell you that you will need two forms of ID.  None of which is true.  Process servers do not ever call ahead so that you can dodge them.  Process servers get paid to serve papers, nothing else.  They certainly are not going to pass up a paycheck by telling you that you can avoid being served, they are not going to give you an extra day or even a few hours to get a “stop order”.  Court documents are time sensitive and have to be served within a certain amount of time.  Remember that you can always call the local courthouse to see if there is actually a lawsuit that has been filed against you.

It is incumbent upon them under the law to prove that the debt exists and that you owe it, and (this is the important part) that they have the legal right to collect it.  You are not obligated under the law to prove that you don’t owe or that it is paid.  

Federal law (FDCPA) requires them to send you a letter (US MAIL ONLY) postmarked within 5 days of their first contact that contains their name, physical address, the creditor’s name, and the amount of the alleged debt. It also must contains “mini-Miranda” telling you that it is an attempt to collect a debt and that all information will be used for those purposes.  The one other important thing that this letter must also have in it is that you have a right to dispute the debt within 30 days of receipt of the letter and if you do so, all collection activity must be stopped until the debt is verified.

First, you should make a complaint at this Federal Agency, and while there you should also read up on how debt collection is supposed to work as well as what your rights in this matter are: https://www.consumerfinance.gov/

Also file a complaint with your State Attorney General's office.

Left a message to call them back before my SSN is changed to "black"
Obviously a scam call

I got the message same as Sharon about my SSN being changed. Call back on my office phone just kept ringing.

Tried a tax scam

They called a few times and said I need to contact them or there will be criminal charges filed against me.

Criminal charges for tax evasion.

Calling my cell phone at early hours of the morning demanding my social security number, DOB and current address threatening legal action

Called today 2X and left message saying it was urgent to contact them...first part of message was cut off.  Just like the other posts here.  I have now blocked the number.
