Threatening message. Turned in to police.

Received this call with a voicemail saying legal action has been filed against me i would be arrested at my place of employment or physical address and they would see me in court. no company name given. when i called back, it said the person you are trying to reach is on the phone and beeped. called the police and explained voicemail, he said they have been getting quite a few calls about voicemails like that.

Called and recorder said I was going to be arrested.  Weird. Don't know how they got my number.

Said they were from the treasury and a warrant was going to be put out for arrest,don't give personal info cus  once I asked for their place of business they replied 'my head' and hung up.

Yeah, I got a call from this number but and then they left a voicemail and they said to see them in court and that they are with the "US Treasury". How did they even get my number? At first I was like "what did I do this time?". But then I thought, I'm a good boy. I've never even missed one school day this year. By the way I'm in 8th grade. So, I kind of thought why do they have a 14 year old's number?

These are criminal extortionists operating in overseas boiler rooms using VOIP to alter their identities and locations and out of the reach of US law enforcement.

If someone calls saying he's an IRS agent and demands that you send money immediately, hang up.
It's a phone scam.In fact, it tops the IRS "Dirty Dozen" list of tax scams this year, and it's been surging in recent months, the agency said Thursday.

The Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA), which oversees the IRS, has received reports of 290,000 scam calls since October 2013 and said nearly 3,000 victims have been swindled out of $14 million so far.

By altering their caller ID number to make it look like they're calling from an IRS office, these scammers often threaten vulnerable people like the elderly and new immigrants with things like arrest, deportation or the loss of their driver's license if they don't pay immediately for money purportedly owed.

Often leaving messages that say it's "urgent" you call them back, the scammers use common names and sometimes say they are from the IRS Criminal Division. They may even claim to know the last four digits of your Social Security number and send follow-up emails that appear to be from the IRS, TIGTA said.

They often demand that payments be made by prepaid debit card.

Once they make their threats, the scammers have been known to call back and again disguise their caller ID so it appears they are calling from the police department or the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV).

Or sometimes when they call, they may say you have a refund due and ask you to provide personal information so you can claim it.

The real IRS will usually contact you by regular mail first, if it needs to contact you at all. And the agency never demands immediate payment by phone or asks for credit card or debit numbers if they do call. It also never asks for personal or financial information by email, text or social media.

If you get what you suspect is a scam call, report it to TIGTA through its Web site or call 800-366-4484.

I got this voice mail a few times. They never ask for anybody by name.Do any of you have them ask by name?

Received first call from this # a couple months ago. I knew I had no reason to be arrested so I ignored and assumed it a scam. Then received a very similar call and a msg was left on my voice mail claiming the same thing, "...you're going to be arrested at your work place" ....1) I don't work and 2) who calls and leaves a msg stating you're going to be arrested without identifying themselves....Fraud!!!
