It went to voice mail. As I listened it was for someone else but the person spoke with a very heavy foreign accent claiming to be from the IRS and for me not to disregard the call. I haven't disregarded it. I'm posting it up here to warn people!

They just called me in VA  
I could not understand what they wanted.

The person is named "Yoseph Capter?" and he talked with my mother. He said he was with the IRS. I called him back and it went straight to a personal voicemail. The scam meter is in dark red.

David Malloy - left three voicemails yesterday. Claims to be from IRS. Advises not to disregard his call and call him back right back. Ya right!

Report the Calls to the real IRS here:
•report the incident to the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration at 800-366-4484.
•You can also file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission at FTC.gov. Add "IRS Telephone Scam" to the comments in your complaint.

Do consider maybe getting a call blocking device or phone.. You can google them and many are around $60.00 or so.

I was told If it's a TAX issue, IRS will never make a phone call. You should receive it from mail.
I did receive the voice mail and asked us to call back, I know it's a scam.

This is not a legitimate call from the IRS.
