Said to call immediately..could hardly understand them

Lady called with very broken English said it was Lisa Davis from US treasury dept.  with a tax evasion notice CP503.  Transferred me to the supposed Officer for my case.  He said there had been 3 prior notices sent to me through the mail at my home address.  He messed up my address each time with mistakes to the street address and leaving out the state I live in.  When I asked three times what state he has been sending them to he got frustrated and said I already said it.  Which he did not.  Only got it right when I explained he has only said the town and zip code.  His English was very broken also.  My husband got on the phone told them to beat it we were not stupid enough to fall for this scam he hung up immediately.  Also told me that a warrant was issued for my arrest and an officer would come and arrest me at my home I said okay fine.  No one has showed up to arrest me yet.  Please do not fall for this scam.  I always pay my taxes.

said her name was Anne Johnson from Dept of Legal Affairs, wanted to talk to my son, told her hes not here so that name and number she left and did call from . Told her No one would be calling her back , I knew it was a scam and I hung up.

Just got a voicemail from this number its a person claiming to be Robert Howe at the US Treasury Department has said that they had a warrant out for me that I would have pending legal actions this is definitely a scam he could not pronouce words correctly...even seemed like his own supposed name was difficult.  Do not call this number back this is one of those IRS scams.

Male with foreign accent left a threatening message on our home voice mail about a legal mess and Dept of Legal Affairs.  Mentioned a name that sounded like my daughter's but was difficult to understand.  Said to call back immediately then ended the call very pleasantly,

Same information as I just read: call from Annie Johnson @ Dept of Legal Affairs, very broken english and said I had an enforcement action against me.  Always glad to check here for SCAMS and thus having her blocked to never hear from her again.

I also got a similar call from someone with a strong accent. He was clearly reading from some sort of script and I don't think he understood English very well because he wasn't even pausing while he was reading...it was just one long sentence and then he abruptly hung up.

I hung up partway through the first call because I didn't have time to find the pencil that he demanded I find immediately. On the second call (moments later), the mumbly caller left a message saying he didn't appreciate being hung up on, and that I needed to get a lawyer because the IRS was going to come to my home at [my address] and arrest me "for six to seven months." Can't really imagine how that would work. I'm supposed to call him back RIGHT AWAY and NOT hang up on him. I hope he's not waiting by the phone.

Do consider getting a call blocking device or phone.. You can google them and many are around $40.00 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.

Omg this is so wrong these people scare the hell out of my dad today telling him the officers are on their way to arrest him for criminal records found on his 2012 tax.  That is so wrong and tell him he had to buy a validation card to put $4,800 on it.

347-923-9538   Dept of Legal Affairs, of US something or other.  Scripted, sounds like they were in a boiler room call center because the background noise was horribly loud.  threatened law enforcement action.  garbage call, do not call back

a message saying they were with the US. Treasury and that I had a legal matter to attend to immediately.

Recorded message from "Atty General of my state" (did not say which). Said to call immediately. Something about my account. Got this twice in one day.

Scam call as Legal Affairs

Man with heavy accent calling himself Austin Howe left message on my answering machine. Had to listen to the message 5 times to decipher it. He claimed to be from the Department of Legal Affairs of the US Treasury. Said there was a "law enforcement action against your earnings." I got a similar call from a different phone number (but same area code) a few months ago for my daughter. I did report that call to the IRS and will report this call as a scam as well.

Call from a "Lisa Davis" claiming she was from "Department of Taxation".  As there is no such department (other than Dept. of REVENUE and Taxation) in our government, I knew it was total BS from the start.  I listened to her broken English BS for a minute before I called her out.  SHe was not happy and threatened me with arrest.  I laughed.

Received call at my job from "Lisa Davis" from Department of Legal Affairs- ID # 96007 claiming that I need to call Kevin Spencer at 347-923-9538 and refused to give me her phone number.

Same information as I just read: call from Annie Johnson @ Dept of Legal Affairs, very broken english and said I had an enforcement action against me.  Always glad to check here for SCAMS. DO NOT CALL BACK.

Received a phone message this morning while in my shower. A male voice saying that there is an issue with the status of my account (did not specify which account) that must be resolved immediately,  as ordered from the US Attorney General, and I should call back.  i suspected a scam and did not call back.

1.5.16.... received a call from a Lisa Davis with legal affairs stating I must call her back immediately they are taking legal action and I must have an attorney on the phone at the time I return the call. Very difficult to understand, total scam! She also stated that they would be putting together a warrant for my arrest so I will just wait until they show up.
