I got a call from this number to sound Indian can not under stand

Just got a threatening call from this number.  Difficult to understand its accent.

Got a call supposedly from IRS, strange accent.

I just received a voicemail from this # claiming that he was a police officer and saying if I (or my attorney) didn't return the call, there would be issues.

I got the same message as ABC about an hour and 20 minutes ago.

I rcvd a call from this number twice and the message was from a male with a heavy accent stating his name was Eric Foster from the IRS. He demanded I return his call or there would be issues... Called back but got no answer or voicemail.

When I called this number back they answered IRS. When u asked to speak to his supervisor he said " you want to speak with my dick?"

Just got the same threatening phone call.  

I got the same call about the IRS
two weeks ago the said the i recieved a govermeny grant for 9000.00 dallas

I received a call from this number and it is threatening.  I did not call back because you can tell it is a scam.  Has someone looked into this issue?  

There's been a lot of articles written about this scam.   Originates in India.  Scammers tend to pick on women, single mothers, the elderly and members of the immigrant community.  Never call them back.  Never talk to them. Block their calls.   If you talk to them and they sense vulnerability, they might come back and hammer you with repeated calls.

Indian accent.

They are hard core Indian or Pakistani scammer/extortionists.  As such they are beyond the reach of US law.   Call blocker is your best bet.

Got this threatening call from an unknown caller with a strange accent.

Also got call from supposed officer with heavy accent.

Also got a call from this number. He stated his name is Eric Foster, IRS officer. He demanded to return his call or there would be issues...

got a call from this number saying the same thing as rf, claimed he worked for the IRS and if i didnt call back there would be issues

I received a call from this number on Monday 10:20 am , he claimed to be officer Eric or Hendric Foster but he never said from what agency. I did not answer the phone but he left the message, very aggressive telling me to return the call or there will be issues,wishing me good luck . STRONG ACCENT.

This is a Pakistan or India based IRS scam. Do not fall for it. The IRS does not initiate any legal action via phone.

As general background information, here are a few things you can do:

1) Report it to TIGTA under http://www.treasury.gov/tigta/contact_report_scam.shtml especially if you have become a victim (lost money, gave personal information etc.). You can also file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission at ftc.gov/complaint (include “IRS Telephone Scam" in your complaint). This way you can also help the government establish specific fraud patterns.

2) Help kill their phone lines but not by calling them back directly (the number may be spoofed and repeat calls by you may - under exceptional circumstances - amount to harassment). The scammers use Voice over IP lines (e.g. magicJack (Ymax corporation)) to make it seem as if they are calling from the US. This is always against these companys' terms of service and can lead to immediate termination of their contract and blocking of their IP addresses for future attempts to register. Do a reverse look up of their telephone number (e.g. www.whitepages.com) to identify the Voice over IP provider and report it to the company and/or law enforcement (local police and/or state attorney general)

3) If you are really annoyed: call or write to your representative in Congress. As these scams happen all over the country maybe this will trigger a reaction and provide US law enforcement agencies with the political backing and the resources they need to work in India and Pakistan together with local authorities (it can happen, read: http://m.ndtv.com/article/india/ex-call-centr ... mmission-320427). A US task force has already been set up in Jamaica to nab scammers there (see http://www.ice.gov/doclib/news/library/reports/cornerstone/cornerstone7-1.pdf). You can use the following template for your letter (more powerful!) or email:

I got this voice mail also. He called himself officer Eric Foster and requested a call back to 202-802-9540. If myself or my attorney didn't call back, he wished me "a good luck."
