Do consider maybe getting a call blocking device or phone.. You can google them and many are around $50.00 or so.If its a cell phone, some already have call blocking, if not, there are free apps on the web that will work for some. You can google this. If you have a smart phone, there is a free app called call control. Iphones appear to have apps also. Another one is called Mr. Number.

I got the same message.

I got one too!

I received a call from this number saying they were the IRS and were filing a lawsuit against me.

If anyone has anymore information on this please contact Officer Bagent at catchcrooks@gmail.com

I received a call from this same number around 10am It came up as a Private Caller. A voice mail message was left saying that the IRS has been looking for me and that they are preparing to file a lawsuit against me if I didn't. Contact them.

I just got one of these messages tonight on my home phone as well.  They claimed to be the IRS & were going to file a lawsuit against me.

Not much you or anyone can do.  These people are located in either India or Pakistan and outside anyone's reach.

I received a call on the 17th stating they were the irs and are filing suit and to call 253-336-5321.  The caller number was 348-814-5969

I got the same message about the IRS filing a lawsuit on or around the 18th. Hope nobody actually believes the IRS would actually leave this kind of automated message! @ CWG40, how do you know these people are in India or Pakistan?

Received a call stating they were the IRS preparing to file a law suit against me

Hindi accent is a dead giveaway.  Been well-known in the anti-scammer community for some time. They are getting better and better in disguising their voices.  But you can always spot it.

Total scam.  Originates in either India or Pakistan.

Report them:

IRS does not file lawsuits.  Tax disputes are 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.   If LE is necessary, US Marshals do the job.  IRS does not cold call anyone and ask for money.  All  contacts by the IRS are initiated by US mail.

DO NOT RETURN THEIR CALLS.   The male Indian scammers become very abusive when they find their scams arn't working.

got the same message from 267-417-5022 to call the IRS @253-336-5321, regarding irs filing a lawsuit against me.

Wtf these guys need to get a real job they called me yesterday with the same message

Got the same message today, with the number 265-407-5722 spoofed on caller ID. Since I know the IRS contacts taxpayers via US mail and not by telephone, I was not fooled by this. The thieves are counting on people panicking when they think they're in trouble with the IRS. The Indian/Pakistani scammers used a robotic voice in the message left on my answering machine to disguise the fact that they're overseas.  Plus I don't owe any back taxes anyway, so the IRS has no reason to contact me at all.

We had a client receive a call with a similar message from IRS, with notification to call back or they would file a lawsuit.  Please know that the IRS will not call you unless you have already received a certified letter in regard to a tax situation of which you are already aware.  Do not call them and give them any information.

I got this today, the message saying it was a final notice from the IRS. When I called, I was transferred back and forth to several people claiming to be IRS agents, threatening a lawsuit, saying I owed the over $4,000. Then they asked me if I would like to "resolve this out of court," and asked me if I had the money on hand to pay them. When I started asking questions, they hung up.

I just received a message from this number also stating they had been trying to get a hold of me and this is the final notice that the IRS is filing a lawsuit against me so I better call back ASAP.  I know that the IRS contacts people via US Mail and also would never leave an automated machine message if they were really coming after you.  Thank you to the people who posted the link to the IRS website telling about this.
