    Scam call saying I was being sued by IRS.  IRS does not contact folks this way for court cases.  Scam call for sure!

    Same recorded message on my voicemail. Recording said I was being sued by the IRS. They said I needed to send them $750.00 dollars or the local police would swear out a warrant for my arrest and if I had kids, they would be taken away from me.

    I’m an Enrolled Agent with the IRS (Inactive). IRS does not initiate contacts by phone.  US mail only.   IRS does not file lawsuits.   Court action, if any is handled by the DOJ and all parties are entitled to legal assistance if it is a criminal matter.  But--tax disputes are for the most part civil matters.  90% of all IRS tax disputes are settled administratively.  IRS has absolutely no authority to call on local law enforcement for anything. Local law is never involved in IRS tax disputes. IRS does not threaten to involve local law enforcement or to arrest you for nonpayment of federal taxes.  IRS has no powers of arrest.    If LE is necessary, US Marshals do the job.  IRS does not cold call anyone and demand immediate payment of  money.  IRS does not ask for financial information over the phone.   IRS does not accept Green card money paks for payment in any case.  No one is prosecuted for ordinary tax disputes. IRS has absolutely no authority over anyone's professional license. Professional licensing is handled by state governments.  Yes, levies on property to satisfy an existing tax obligation do occur, but only after a very long period of negotiation. And yes, liens are placed on individuals but  usually after a lot of negotiation and a failure to reach a settlement.    All determinations of tax liability are subject to appeals.  All  contacts by the IRS are initiated by US mail.

    This is the most persistent scam I've ever encountered.  We've received at least half a dozen calls from this number.  Need a "scam" option in the "Call Type" drop-down.

    Might seem obvious to you, but you'd be surprised how many people actually think that

    1.  IRS files lawsuits.
    2.  IRS has powers of arrest.
    3   People can be arrested for errors on their taxes.
    4.  IRS cold calls people and demands money.
    5.  IRS can tell local police to arrest you for tax disputes.
    6.  IRS officers can issue arrest warrants.
    7.  IRS can take away your DL.

    A lot of otherwise sensible people fall for this scam.

    You're right CW. That's obvious. These scams have bilked millions from naïve people in the US & Canada. What's obvious to us isn't to people that haven't been made aware of what goes on out there in the world of fraud. We know how the world of fraud works. The innocent & unaware don't. It's to those people that we do what we do. We care.

    Just called and same as others on this site.  Got a call over 2 weeks ago from 360-967-4459 like the IRS is going to call from the state of Washington and that one the message you couldn't understand who was suing otherwise same thing word for word except phone number.  Love how message says you must call immediately!  Sure glad I pay for caller id.  So sick of all robocalls but these are just pure ridiculous.  Most robocalls hang up during machine message.  Next internet site FTC do not call list reporting then my Secretary General for all the good those do,
