    Foreign accent saying we owe Federal money etc., and threatening what is going to happen if not paid and of course he can help.   His first name was Steve and could not understand his last name.  Why can't this be stopped and deport the individual.

    Head over to India. Downtown Mumbai. CBS news had no problem finding their calling centers, which is about every 2 business'. Unless these foreign Government's cooperate, what can the US do?

    Just got a call-- CID said Damascus MD.  Guy named "Steve" w/foreign accent claiming I owed money to the gov't and would need to appear before a magistrate/judge. This was the second attempt to reach me.  Never called me by name.    He said for him to help him help me and failure to respond to this call would result in my being in trouble.

    The same guy who has a strange accent left a message saying that my 2012 taxes were wrong and that the irs has sent me 2 notices saying for me to contact them and said that i have gone past the expiration date. I called irs and reported it to their investigative department. I asked the scammer guy to talk to his supervisor he said that there wasnt an available supervisor i asked later on for an address they said that they wanted to know why i was asking them for the address then hung up the phone. The guy and the same lady with the accents. Too dumb to think they can lie to me about an arrest warrant and something wrong with my taxes they got busted by me. I have it all docuented and they can deal with the investigators and get to be questioned and put in prison.

    Got a call at 0900 hrs. Same things as talked about above. Well I returned their call over and over. Each time I ask for Steve. When he got on the phone I told him to come and get me and a few other things. I called back several time all day. Just made them upset all day.     LOL

    Just got the same call from "Steve Modern." He said, "Hi this message is invented to contact you. My name is Steve Modern, and I'm calling regarding an enforcement actions executed by U.S. Treasury, intending your [?]. Ignoring this will be an intentional 2nd attempt to avoid initial appearance before a magistrate judge or a grand jury for a federal criminal offense. My number is 2407451340. I'd like you to cooperate with us to help us to help you."

    Just got the exact same call, same number, same name  'Steve' from Damascus MD which I'm sure is a back alley in India somewhere.  Same statement saying "Let me help you". Thank goodness for the delete button. :)

    Same message as all the others.  Not scared!  I just let it go to voicemail, as I do with all calls from numbers I don't know.
