202-738-1097

I have received 2 phone calls this morning claiming There has been fraud committed on my tax returns. I know there is not.

I got a call from 202-738-1097 this morning saying that I had been audited by the IRS and that there were a lot of mistakes on my taxes.When I told the man that I had my taxes professionally done and there were no mistakes on it,he got angry and said "so you don't want to pay well fine" and he hung up on me.

Received call at 6:55 a.m. a recording from a so called officer working in the fraud department of the i.r.s. did not state my name but stated a fraud has been committed on my tax return. I believe it's bogus

I have received 4 calls in 2 days from this number. The message left was a recording telling me there's a problem with my taxes and if I don't call back I will be sued for fraud.

My mom came to me in a panic saying that 202-738-1097 called her stating tax fraud over several years of taxes. Said she owed $25,000. Also told her that "they" will come in 20 min to arrest her. If it was this serious an IRS angent and police would be here not a fake Scam artists calling and treating a senior citizen over the phone. Thank you low life scum for putting my mom through this I hope you rot in hell.

I got a 2 recordings earlier this morning saying there was fraudulent activity on my account.  I there there was not. I have a CPA that worked for the IRS do them and have done so for 20 years. I called the number and a foreign man answered. In the background was lots of chatter...a call center.  He answered  IRS. I told him I  was Agent Scully  ( a nod to X files) and said they were presently under investigation for calling people with an IRS scam. He got frustrated and said I had to talk to his manager, who was right there and she just said Hello? She didn't identify herself.  Then the call was disconnected. Don't fall for this.

I got a recording earlier this morning from 202-738-1097.  Said that I'm under Federal Investigation. I call back and man ask me for my name. The man answered in the background was like a call center.  He told me that the police will come to arrest me. I just hang up the phone, I don't let him to continue to ask me more questions.

I received a call from this number this number, it was a recording saying that it was an urgent matter regarding the IRS and I should call them back immediately. I called them back, they answered, asked me for my phone number and they called out my full name. He said he worked for the IRS made me write down a batch number and then said there was a warrant against me, and unless I paid $3,000.00 I would get arrested. Long story short, I hung up, called 911 and the actual IRS and it was all a low life scammer. Please do not fall for this!
