415-251-2122

called NY from California,Left me a message urging me to call back with case#561890 regarding income tax immediately or face legal action from their litigation.When I text them back to clarify, left the same message.
I reported 415-251-2122 to IRS.

Called today said they were the irs asked for my ex husband, this number also left a message and "Steve" whom had a deep ethnic accent could barely be understood! It is always the same guy that calls!

guy from the IRS called....Justin Johnson (with heavy Indian accent).....he said
they are filing a suit against  for a miscalculation
on a return-gave a case number.  Did reverse lookup to Ymax communications in SF.  Looked at other reverse lookup and call seemed to be coming from Greenville, SC.  

Received call from probably the same guy with a thick, Indian accent.  Asked for someone I've never heard of.  "Call back the second you receive this message" type thing.  SCAM!

Received the same call from same guy two days ago from 415-251-7622.

The guy called me with heavy Indian accent, about some income tax issues....SCAM

The same guy call me to with heavy Indian accent about tax miscalculation,......SCAN

This person called saying their name was Sean Hadley. They had a thick foreign accent with a lot of background noise. They were trying to be intimidating, saying that it was very time sensitive and we must call back within 72 hours. They said they were from the Tax department (IRS) and we owe some money. But this is not true at all. We knew this was a fraud, and reported them to the IRS. Beware!

Same thing everyone else said...non-American speaking person called trying to intimidate, 2X in 2 hours...SCAM!

HOW? I've been all over the IRS site and can't find how to report these frauds to them.

This article from the www.irs.gov website tells you how to report these scams:

IR-2013-84, Oct. 31, 2013
WASHINGTON — The Internal Revenue Service today warned consumers about a sophisticated phone scam targeting taxpayers, including recent immigrants, throughout the country.

Victims are told they owe money to the IRS and it must be paid promptly through a pre-loaded debit card or wire transfer. If the victim refuses to cooperate, they are then threatened with arrest, deportation or suspension of a business or driver’s license. In many cases, the caller becomes hostile and insulting.

“This scam has hit taxpayers in nearly every state in the country.  We want to educate taxpayers so they can help protect themselves.  Rest assured, we do not and will not ask for credit card numbers over the phone, nor request a pre-paid debit card or wire transfer,” says IRS Acting Commissioner Danny Werfel. “If someone unexpectedly calls claiming to be from the IRS and threatens police arrest, deportation or license revocation if you don’t pay immediately, that is a sign that it really isn’t the IRS calling.” Werfel noted that the first IRS contact with taxpayers on a tax issue is likely to occur via mail.

Other characteristics of this scam include:
Scammers use fake names and IRS badge numbers. They generally use common names and surnames to identify themselves.
Scammers may be able to recite the last four digits of a victim’s Social Security Number.
Scammers spoof the IRS toll-free number on caller ID to make it appear that it’s the IRS calling.
Scammers sometimes send bogus IRS emails to some victims to support their bogus calls.

Victims hear background noise of other calls being conducted to mimic a call site.
After threatening victims with jail time or driver’s license revocation, scammers hang up and others soon call back pretending to be from the local police or DMV, and the caller ID supports their claim.
If you get a phone call from someone claiming to be from the IRS, here’s what you should do:
If you know you owe taxes or you think you might owe taxes, call the IRS at 1.800.829.1040. The IRS employees at that line can help you with a payment issue – if there really is such an issue.
If you know you don’t owe taxes or have no reason to think that you owe any taxes (for example, you’ve never received a bill or the caller made some bogus threats as described above), then call and report the incident to the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration at 1.800.366.4484.
If you’ve been targeted by this scam, you should also contact the Federal Trade Commission and use their “FTC Complaint Assistant” at FTC.gov.  Please add "IRS Telephone Scam" to the comments of your complaint.
Taxpayers should be aware that there are other unrelated scams (such as a lottery sweepstakes) and solicitations (such as debt relief) that fraudulently claim to be from the IRS.
The IRS encourages taxpayers to be vigilant against phone and email scams that use the IRS as a lure. The IRS does not initiate contact with taxpayers by email to request personal or financial information.  This includes any type of electronic communication, such as text messages and social media channels. The IRS also does not ask for PINs, passwords or similar confidential access information for credit card, bank or other financial accounts. Recipients should not open any attachments or click on any links contained in the message. Instead, forward the e-mail to phishing@irs.gov.

More information on how to report phishing scams involving the IRS is available on the genuine IRS website, IRS.gov.

Hi.  Anyone receiving a call from this number claiming to be the IRS don't be had.  Its a scam.  I was able to hack the voicemail message last night.  If you are forwarded to a VM or get a VM reply - just hit the * key and you have 3 tries to hack the admin password.  The original admin was '1111' so these scammers are not the brightest bunch.  The one I changed it to was '9986'.  Feel free to guess as to the actual 4 digit admin number.  I would love to hear if someone else hacked the system.  Good luck screwing these idiots!  Post the 4 digit code if anyone is able to hack it!

Same thing, Sean Hadley. Nasty message. Called in and got somebody, when I asked for Sean Hadley said no one by that name worked there and hung up on me.

same as the above....i just blocked the call

Same message from same "Justin Johnson".  Got a call with the same scam from another number earlier in the week.

Told him due to that, the call was being traced and he actually had the gall to begin to argue that he was legit.  Decided to cut him off and give him his own line - that he would be arrested in 45 minutes.  "Justin" then hung up.  He actually called back one minute later to try again.

These morons aren't the sharpest knives in the drawer.  Even after I described the steps in his scam to him, he just tried to plow ahead.

Just got a call from this number. Looks like these guys are Indians. One of them calls himself as Eric. Looks like a scam.

I received a call today, let her complete her entire message, which she spoke for more than 10 minutes. Then I told her about the a mail I received from the IRS about a scam going on, based on an earlier post from this site. I asked her to provide more details about herself and she hung up very quickly.

Thanks to technology, these scammers arent going to get anywhere if one performs due dilligence. Called them twice more asking for more information so I can inform the IRS and FBI about them, they are not picking up the phone anymore.

Just called them and someone called Jenny picked up and told her to get a life and not perpetrate this scam. She said thank you and promptly hung up. Tried to call several times again and they are not picking up the phone. I think they can see our number so if you want them to pick up, call from a different number.

p.s. They use Magic Jack and keep  changing their phone number so blocking will not really help. Though I would be very interested to find out how they got our phone number and other details. By the looks of it, there are tens of people working on this scam (you can hear several folks in the background) so it is definitely semi-organized crime.

Same here. Just called me. I wanted to check on the internet first

I just got a call from these scam artists saying that there was a problem with my income taxes and I haven't even filed my taxes yet.
