347-650-2129

This guy was demanding he was calling from the US Treasury and saying "someone will come and arrest me in 45 minutes" and I've responded "Yes please come over, I'm ready". Nobody showed up.

Just received a call from this number and let the machine pick it up. There was no message left, but they did linger on the phone a bit. I will be adding this number to my call blocker.

He left a message saying I was in legal trouble to call back now!

Called and told me there was a warrant out for my arrest and 3 IRS violations against me from 2013.  Couldn't understand why I hadn't noticed all the attempts at communication to me.

Caller said he was from the US Treasury dept, and that I was delinquent in my taxes from 2012. Said it was too late to pay and that a warrant was already issued, but if I worked with them I could avoid 6 months in jail and $40K in fines/penalty/taxes. Wouldn't give me any specifics about me other than name, address, phone number. He said that they tired 'multiple' times to notify me by mail and in person, but no one was home. Threatened to end the call and have the officers pick me up every time I asked for information only the IRS or US Treasury would have. Wanted me to get a Payment Card and put the owed taxes/penalties on the card. His name was Jack Conoway, badge # 041396. Said not to worry, once I got the card it would have an activation # and Validation #, and that he only needed the Validation # . I Googled his phone number (Area code = Brooklyn & Queens, NY) found a lot of comments from others that sounded very familiar.

Phone call from Dept Legal Affairs US Treasury - 2012 Delinquent taxes. Wouldn't give me any information. Threatened an arrest in 45 minutes, wanted my lawyers name. Same scripted info as the other calls. Didn't ask me to pay or anything that you would think they would do to be out for money.

They called me saying they were from the US Treasury Dept and wanted my lawyers information so they could contact him....I told them I represent myself and it kind of blew his mind. I had fun with it on the phone. Never fall for anything over the phone.

This is a scam.  See the IRS link below for more:

Left voice mail on 12/7 deman ding we call back immediately to resolve a legal matter as per the attorney general.

Got phone message from this number on 12/16. It said that we must call the number 347-905-5312 now to resolve a legal problem about our account.

Got a guy with an Indian accent claiming to be Agent MacDonald from the treasury.  He wanted contact information for my lawyer.  I asked how a guy with an Indian accent got an Irish last name.  He gave me his badge number, so I kept asking him questions about his nationality and how to spell his name.  He got mad and told me I would be arrested in an hour.  I told him to come on over.

Just got a call a couple minutes ago from "private number", so I let the machine pick up.  This was the number left.  Said I was in trouble with my state's AG and to call back right now.

Call from this number was a recorded message saying "we are calling about a legal matter on your account - press 1 to speak with one of our agents"....pressed 1 and got a fast busy. Scam.

We have a legal status that needs to be taken care of right now!  From the Attorney General of state.   Call now !!

State Attorney Generals do not collect debt nor do they get involved in them in any way, unless it is top prosecute the debt collector.  pretending to be thenAG is probably a felony.

This is a common ploy by criminals masquerading as debt collectors who are attempting to extort money from people by scaring you into believing that you will be criminally charged, go to jail, lose your driver’s license, have wages garnished, be sued, and a variety of other variations on this,  all for an alleged or nonexistent debt.  One of the tricks they use is to call your work place, friends, or relatives repeatedly in an attempt to shame you into paying.  They also use the “process server” ruse who calls and claims he is going to serve you, but then says you could avoid it by calling another number


Federal law (FDCPA) requires them to send you a letter (US MAIL ONLY) within 5 days of their first contact that contains their name, physical address, the creditor’s name, and the amount of the alleged debt.  It also must contains “mini-Miranda” telling you that it is an attempt to collect a debt and that all information will be used for those purposes.  The one other important thing that this letter must also have in it is that you have a right to dispute the debt within 30 days of receipt of the letter and if you do so, all collection activity must be stopped until the debt is verified.
