804-554-3033

Call came into home phone  from an 800#.  Said he was from IRS and knew both mine and husband's name.  Also had our address. When I told him he was a scammer, he started arguing with me.  He gave the name of Roger Reid and said that he was calling us regarding an audit for the IRS.  Also said that the IRS had sent certified letter.  Hung up on him.  Bogus call.

This Jerk left a message on my residence phone saying if I did not return his call I would be arrested.  He has a terrible accent and is obviously a scammer.   Do not be taken in by him.

Received a call from this number stating that he was from IRS and that a legal petition was filed against us. That we would be arrested if we did not call back and make payment arrangements. The man had a very thick East Indian or Pakistanian accent he was very difficult to understand. In the background you could hear numerous other voices with the same accent. Does the IRS only hire individuals with such poor telephone skills?  Believe that this is a scam.

Received call with caller ID for the IRS (800-829-1040). Threatened to have my wife arrested unless she called 804-554-3033 to straighten out this legal action that would be taken against her. Caller identified himself as Brian Aramaker (not sure of spelling but that's how it sounded). The IRS put out a bulletin on this scam in October 2013 and it tells you what to do to report this scam.

804-554-3033, Kevin Smith fron IRS said a tax audit with federal legal action pending and Iwould be arrested if I did not call back. Bogus call.

I agree with all the others commenting here. When I told the heavy accented guy that he did not have my correct address he pushed me for my current address. He even went as far as to say he had been to my house, took a photo of my front door and that the door was locked! Wow....he tried to get access to my home! He asked me if I had an attorney to represent me and that he was from the IRS. I asked to speak to someone that did not have a problem speaking english....he declined and told me he was the only one I could talk to according to his attorney James. What a bunch of BS! When I asked for their call back number I was given 804-554-3033 to which I promptly called three times immediately and they hung up on me immediately.
(they called me on 800-829-1040 and gave me the call back number of 804-554-3033)

What a scam and Total waste of my time! Dont be fooled into giving these Yahoos anything but the DIALTONE and CLICK!

recieved call from this number saying they are the IRS and wanted money or would arrest me.

Spent 45 mins messing with these scammers, day off and nothing to do😜 figured if I do this then that's someone he can't steal from! Total scam but really fun to mess with! If you have the time waste there time like they are wasting other

Yelp I got that message too!! First thing I did was pull up Google and find all the messages. Thank you. I wasn't falling for it myself. I hate scammers!!

I just got the same message from what sounded like the same guy reported by the others above. Conveniently, the audio quality cut out as the caller spoke his name. Oddly, the caller ID displayed as: 0000000000

Got a call saying that off David from the IRS. Stated I had a legal petition against me and if I didnt call back that I would be arrested. The caller id came from 1-800-829-1040 but left 804-554-3033 as the callback. Scam!

i got the same message...after checking this post I decided to call them back and play with them.  told them I was on to them and that he FEDs would be arriving soon to drag them away....then he started cursing at me and I told him that the FEDs would be sending him back to where he came from on a flying carpet!!!

I received the same phone call this morning from someone named kevin with threats if I didn't send them money my home would be seized along with my car and all bank accounts. I could face up to $90,000 in fines. he asked me how I was going to take care of this matter and I told him I was calling my attorney and he would be in touch with them at the 804-554-3033 number. he told be someone would be knocking at my door within 3 hours to hand me legal papers and that I would be in big trouble!

Got a message saying that it was Kevin Smith from the IRS. Stated I had a legal petition against me and if I didn't call back that I would be arrested. The caller id came from 1-800-829-1040 but left 804-554-3033 as the callback. sounded like a scan, since the heavy accent, call center background and the bad connection.  Checked the internet and found all of these posts.  Thank you for posting.

 I got a call 1-23-15 that there were 4 tax fraud violations against me . the caller which had an accent i could barely understand said they had been at my address 2 times in november and twice in december . he said there was nobody home and the doors were locked to serve notices and now they are taking action . he said i would be arrested within 2 hours and would be held for 48 hrs. or i could settle outside of federal court for $90,000. there were also a lot of voices in the background . he got real angry with me because i said i was not aware of any problems with my taxes and that i had not received any notices.he said its unfortunate for me but that i had been ignoring them . i hung up on him giving him no personnal info . I immediatly called my tax preparer to see what was going on. while i was on the phone with him this guy tried to call me 3 times then left a message to call back and get this resolved the phone number he left was 804 554 3033 . the number he was calling from showed up on caller id 1 800 829 1040 . this is a scam and i also notified the sherriffs office

If someone calls saying he's an IRS agent and demands that you send money immediately, hang up.
It's a phone scam.In fact, it tops the IRS "Dirty Dozen" list of tax scams this year, and it's been surging in recent months, the agency said Thursday.

The Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA), which oversees the IRS, has received reports of 290,000 scam calls since October 2013 and said nearly 3,000 victims have been swindled out of $14 million so far.

By altering their caller ID number to make it look like they're calling from an IRS office, these scammers often threaten vulnerable people like the elderly and new immigrants with things like arrest, deportation or the loss of their driver's license if they don't pay immediately for money purportedly owed.

Often leaving messages that say it's "urgent" you call them back, the scammers use common names and sometimes say they are from the IRS Criminal Division. They may even claim to know the last four digits of your Social Security number and send follow-up emails that appear to be from the IRS, TIGTA said.

They often demand that payments be made by prepaid debit card.

Once they make their threats, the scammers have been known to call back and again disguise their caller ID so it appears they are calling from the police department or the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV).

Or sometimes when they call, they may say you have a refund due and ask you to provide personal information so you can claim it.

The real IRS will usually contact you by regular mail first, if it needs to contact you at all. And the agency never demands immediate payment by phone or asks for credit card or debit numbers if they do call. It also never asks for personal or financial information by email, text or social media.

If you get what you suspect is a scam call, report it to TIGTA through its Web site or call 800-366-4484.

Received a message on my home phone from a man with a heavy East Indian accent, identifying himself as "Office Gary Anderson," that he was from the IRS and they had a warrant for my arrest.  Police Dept in my city (Laguna Beach, CA) didn't care, unless they had actually stolen money.  G
uess these scam calls are OK to do unless they're successful.  numer he left was 804-554-3033.

Same as all the rest:  Officer Gary Anderson (with a think Indian accent) left a threatening message. He was with "the tax audit department of the IRS." There is a legal petition notice in the name of  (this is really funny)  my ex-husband who has never lived at this residence, nor ever had this phone number...and they got his name completely wrong.

So before we get arrested, we need to call 804-554-3033

I just filed a complaint with the Tax Inspector General for Tax Administration at http://www.treasury.gov/tigta/contact_report_scam.shtml

You should too!

same shxt! an indian man named "smith"  called from 800-829-1040, call back # 804-554-3033, called him back 3 times and cussed him out all 3 times until he blocked my calls!

I had a call from t his bozo as well. Also turns out he's into craigslist scams using the same number. I found two properties with the same exact descriptions. At least he embedded the phone number with the scam ad image. https://evansville.craigslist.org/apa/d/evans ... 7139775101.html
