206-201-2581

Called saying that the IRS is filing a lawsuit against me.  I turned off caller ID and called back but no answer.

Out of Area on caller ID so didn't answer.  Message said "We have been trying to reach you.  This is the IRS and this is your last chance before we file a lawsuit against you."  This is a SCAM!  These people want your personal information including social security number, bank account numbers/credit card numbers, etc.  Do NOT give them ANY information.  In fact, don't even talk to them.  The IRS never makes phone calls like this.  If you want to make sure it's a scam, contact the IRS yourself and ask.

I told I will going to jail.

its no true ....

They say there is a law suit against me but they don't even say who it's from..........SCAM!  I wish people had better things to do with their time. Please get a job and a leave honest, hard working people alone!!!!!!!!

Got the same call as Just-checking minutes ago.  Call ID test said Bainbridge I WA.

Received message on home answering machine that this was a final notice from the  Internal Revenue Service.

Same as above, but said "Internal Revenue Services" when leaving the message.

As above, left message that it was IRS and that they were filing a lawsuit against me.

I live in Anchorage, Alaska and I was lucky enough to get a caller that left me a message that I to have a law suit coming from 206-201-258. It's my lucky day!

We got this call as well two days ago.  I think they might be targeting Alaskans because of the permanent fund.  It is a scam, as others have noted. The IRS always contacts people by mail.  Our taxes are paid up.  I just hope no one falls for their line of B.S.  I wish I were clever enough to call the number back and mess with them.

Received a message that "this is the last warning before the IRS legal department will file a lawsuit against you".  Why are people so dishonest and just plain awful?

Call recording saying the IRS has a lawsuit against you?? very skecthy

Sad to say this IS their job.  They are hard core Indian and Pakistani scammer/extortionists.

Total scam.  Originates in either India or Pakistan.   Block and ignore.   DO NOT RETURN THE CALL!

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.
