210-390-9352

This is second call in one week.

I got a call from this number. They asked me to send some $2.8K to IRS failing which police from Richmond, VA will arrest me.

Caller says he is investigating a federal investigation regarding a complaint and leaves a message to cll him back. I have got similar calls from other phone numbers. "Beware" Do not answer calls from this number!!!!!!

BE WARNED; THIS IS A SCAM. I keep getting these types of calls threatening a possible arrest if I don't call them back, and some of the callers are VERY convincing (other than their English names despite their heavy Indian accents).

In the past, the caller has identified himself as an officer from the "Department of Investigations", even though no such department exists at the federal level or in my state. This time, however, he specified he was an "officer of the federal government". (I guess they didn't get the memo that the federal government is shut down right now.) Anyway, if they were real, they'd identify themselves specifically from FBI, IRS, or some other  specific federal agency.

They are based out of India and seem use fear tactics on folks of Indian decent to extort money from them under the guise of a "fine" or "penalty", frequently claiming that IRS back-taxes are owed. They never specify the charges against you on the answering machine (real investigators would never call you about an impending arrest in the first place), and they hang up on you if you tell them you know about their scam. (They won't waste their time on people who are aware of what they're doing.)

I did a reverse lookup on the phone number, and it's based out of San Antonio, TX (so much for "federal"), although I'm fairly sure that the number is just an "exit point" for voice-over-IP communications. Since these guys are based outside of the country, it's virtually impossible for the Feds to catch these guys without some form of international cooperation.

The guy called me several times., reported to PD. he even talked to the police officer and said he will call again and again. He said his name was Kevin and then Rahul from Texas and works for L&T ( larson and turbo), anybody who knows him pls get him arested.
