214-238-8245

Root cal stating that IRS has filed a lawsuit against U.S. and said to call the number back for more informations. Called twice today. Total scam.

Same here - supposedly a lawsuit by the IRS. It's a scam.

same message, bad computer voice asking me to call them back about a lawsuit.

Same thing- poor quality comp generated voice saying we were being sued by IRS and to call them back for details.  Bullsh.

Called my house 2 times today

obvious scam. IRS would notify you by mail and it would not be a 214 number to call.
Called twice today. I called # and it rang 5 or 6 times then busy.

I two, count 'em two calls from that number earlier today.  Both were left as messages on my answering machine.  Computer generated call, telling me the IRS is getting ready to file a lawsuit against me.  I'm tempted to call back and mess with them.

Just called them back. Eastern Indian man in a huge call center (I could hear hundreds of voices in the background). Told me I owed $2,350 in back taxes. I told him that it sounded very sketchy, and he asked if I thought this was a "scam"?  I told him yes, and that I would be calling the IRS TOMORROW. He hung up. Obviously a scam.

Called twice today
Could not talk to a live person
Would love to talk to them and tell them where to stick their phone

So done with theses types of calls.  Left 2 messages on answering machine.   Only a partial "robo" call.   Just call this number back for further information on this case filing....yada yada yada.      TOTAL idiots.   Looks like this scam is starting to make the rounds all over again.   And gee, probably like other scams of this type..........we all have the same case # and owe the same amount.   This is definitely a scam.............IRS would not contact you in this manner.    PLEASE A@@hole.......get a REAL life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!     UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Recorded call supposedly IRS that they were suing me.  Called my CPA who said it is a hoax, and IRS does not call!

Scam call. Do not respond.

They've just called my home number, idiots. Supposedly there is a lawsuit against me somewhere, and these good souls want to help me out :-).

Same as the others.  A recorded message indicating that the IRS was suing me, and that I needed to call them back.

214-238-8245 multiple calls telling us IRS is filing a lawsuit against us. So annoying. Total scam

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.

Same as the other comments.  Left a message saying the IRS has filed a lawsuit against us and to get more info call this number.  It was in our local paper about this scam and to let the IRS know when you get one of these calls so I am emailing the IRS now with the phone number.

Got a call with message left from 214-238-8245 and it was partially cut off.  Sounded like a robot telling me the IRS was suing me.  No name left only this phone number. To my knowledge the IRS wouldn't call a number and leave a message on an answering machine telling someone they are being sued.  They don't even know if they have the right number.

IRS is calling !,  Ha-ha-ha. Someone called this morning, "This is the IRS, you need to call us back at this number",from Plano TX.

Twice today. Number is in Texas. Asshats.
