Called and left a vm. Obvious foreign accent stated I was flagged for tax fraud? Said his name was Mark Jones and I needed to call him before the situation got worse and he wished me best of luck. All of my taxes were on time and done correctly so sounds like a scam to me! Don't give him any information.

Simillar call as "m" above, but he claimed to be Robert Watson from IRS, Tax and Audit Department.  Claimed they had mailed me a letter, but it was returned. When I asked him -- He didn't know the IRS's Agency name. The IRS uses the federal department name because irs could be misleading

Same as thise above. Gave name as Mark Jones. When I called back and told him I was going to report them he hung up.

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.

Got the same Mark Jones phone call, pretty ruff tone heavy accent.  THIS IS A SCAM and here's why:

Note that the IRS will never: 1) call to demand immediate payment, nor will the agency call about taxes owed without first having mailed you a bill; 2) demand that you pay taxes without giving you the opportunity to question or appeal the amount they say you owe; 3) require you to use a specific payment method for your taxes, such as a prepaid debit card; 4) ask for credit or debit card numbers over the phone; or 5) threaten to bring in local police or other law-enforcement groups to have you arrested for not paying.

Got two calls from Mark Jones regarding my tax fraud/evasion case.  I reported them to the FTC.

Same as other callers. He has called and left messages a few times.
You can report this guy at https://www.treasury.gov/tigta/contact_report_scam.shtml

I got 2 calls today from a gentleman with a foreign accent saying I needed to call them back that I was wanted for tax fraud that he was with the IRS. I didn't respond, obvious SCAM!!

I received the same call as above from a Mark Jones.  I called back and told him that I have reported him to the authorities and to never call my number again.

Got a voice mail same as other callers.  I happen to work for a police department so I used the department phone to call back hoping they would see the caller id!  Said he wanted to get some information but I said I needed some information from him before responding to any questions.  He said he was Mark Davis from IRS.  I said I was under the impression that the IRS did not make phone calls - he said ok and hung up!!  Guess that's that!

Same scam from these scammin scumbags

Same as above.  Recording left via vm claiming to be part of a "tax evasion".

Got several voice mail with the same messages as other callers. This guy calls twice a day everyday for entire week  unit I finally answer the phone.  Said he wanted to get some information but I said I needed some information from him before responding to any questions.  He said he was Dave John from IRS and that unless I pay the authorities I will be arresting me.  When I told him I'll take my chances he said ok and hung up!!  Let's face it the IRS don't make phone calls.

My husband called the number back and was going to have some fun with this...the person answered the phone Hello-di-dodi-do. The person could not hear and we hung up. I actually kept the message bc it is so ridiculous that it makes me laugh!

No different news for you...name was Mark Jones...tax fraud...tax evasion...yada...yada!  Don't waist your time...this is not how the IRS handles things.

Exact same message as several have reported.  I called back from my office line and there was never even a ring on the other end.  Block this scammer!  Do not release any information or even answer this robo-call.

They've called a few times and LM but today finally got me. Claiming this time I have criminal issues, etc. told him I have no issue and he's a scammer and remove my number. They have my real name and I'm
not even listed on the phone book. Go figure. Sounded East Indian or something like the accent of those calling about computer protection with Microsoft software, etc. Who would give that access to their computer with this MO? With so many hackers milling about without giving any info, then entrusting to phone caller with heavy accent? Insane how our personal information can be accessed just like that. BEWARE!!!

got the same intimidating Mark Jones call on my voicemail. I disregarded it because my taxes are in order. Who can we contact to stop these criminals?

Same thing as all of you, tax fraud..  yada yada yada.... when I told them it was a scam the guy proceeded to tell me my own address and that he was personally coming to see me to end my life. They have now called me 6 times. I'm filing a report.

I just received the same message from a gentleman that had a foreign accent as well stating to me that I needed to call as soon as possible with my attorney about being caught for Tax fraud. I refuse to give this man a call because it sounded like a scam and now that I know it's a Scam I have deleted off my phone and blocked the number.

Thank you,
