    Boiler room call center scammers. They will say anything to rob you of your money. F*cking piece of sh*t phone calls seeking money or information from people are always scams. Do not give any banking information or personal information. Report them to the police.

    This is a Pakistan or India based IRS scam. Do not fall for it. The IRS does not initiate any legal action via phone.  
    Read http://www.treasury.gov/tigta/press/press_tigta-2014-03.htm

    As general background information, here are a few things you can do:
    1) Report it to TIGTA under http://www.treasury.gov/tigta/contact_report_scam.shtml especially if you have become a victim (lost money, gave personal information etc.). You can also file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission at ftc.gov/complaint (include “IRS Telephone Scam" in your complaint). This way you can also help the government establish specific fraud patterns.

    2) Help kill their phone lines but not by calling them back direction  (the number may be spoofed and repeat calls by you may - under exceptional circumstances- amount to harassment). The scammers use Voice over IP lines (e.g. magicJack (Ymax corporation)) to make it seem as if they are calling from the US. This is always against these companys' terms of service and can lead to immediate termination of their contract and blocking of their IP addresses for future attempts to register. Do a reverse look up of their telephone number (e.g. www.whitepages.com) to identify the Voice over IP provider and report it to the company and/or law enforcement (local police and/or state attorney general)

    3) If you are really annoyed: call or write to your representative in Congress. As these scams happen all over the country maybe this will trigger a reaction and provide US law enforcement agencies with the political backing and the resources they need to work in India and Pakistan together with local authorities (it can happen, read: http://www.ndtv.com/article/india/ex-call-cen ... mmission-320427). A US task force has already been set up in Jamaica to nab scammers there (see http://www.ice.gov/doclib/news/library/reports/cornerstone/cornerstone7-1.pdf). You can use the following template for your letter (more powerful!) or email:

    Fraud Alert!  Three separate people called from this number and said I owed money to the IRS for unpaid back taxes and threatened me with accusations of criminal activity.  One said his name was Larry Wilkins, and one said his name was Jack Williams.  All callers had heavy accents.  Operator says that they are "Tax Crime Investigation Unit, we are Law Enforcement".

    My friend got a call from these crazy people today, they told her if she didn't send 3,500.00 within two hours she would go to jail.  I called them back and asked if they knew they were all over the internet as scam?  He told me not to believe everything on the internet and then hung up!
