If the IRS wanted to talk to you, they'd send you a letter via good old snail mail.  The IRS, for all it's faults, does not threaten people with legal action if they don't return a call.  Sounds like a typical fake IRS scammer calling you.  Report the caller to the real IRS at www.irs.gov.

I got a several calls from 202 area code said that they from IRS , criminal investigation, etc.... Today, I got a call from this number 202-808-3661 from IRS and treaten me with legal action if I did not call back with my name and SS #.

So what happened? I got a call -- are they looking for us to give them our social to begin their scam?

Why has no one shut these folks down? Is this a scam... they would not give me the social they where calling about to verify if they where calling the correct person. I sais you have my name but what is the social you have to go with it. They would not give it to me. They have not asked for any money... but if I give them my social they will have what they need to scam me. In my opinion!

Do not give them any info. See my post and Elspeth's above for the links to the IRS and report this call.  If the real IRS needed to contact you, they would send a letter.

And as far as not shutting them down, some of these criminals, extortion scammers and frauds are not in the US. They move around constantly even when they are and they spoof numbers & caller ID.   It takes time to catch these guy's and then if they are in a foreign country, then you have more red tape. That country has to co-operate with ours and that doesn't always happen.

They're looking to scare people into paying for taxes they don't even owe.  Report the callers to the real IRS at www.irs.gov.

I got a call from a private number and left a number 202-808-3661 to call back to IRS. When I called back and asked what is the problem? I did ask him to let me talk to your Manager, but he refused and said that he is busy and will call you back. It is a scam.

i got the same massage  and gave my social number. did not know what to do.

You need to contact the social security office and tell them this. Place fraud alerts on your credit and banking as well. Contact the real IRS and file a complaint/report with them also, see the links above.

Same number call me but    Unfortuanitly give my social don't know what to do ?

I got this same call and message today. Is it really a scam?

Got a call this morning from a 800 number which displayed US IRS, but the person on line said call this no.2028083661... Blaa Blaa. Telling about criminal investigation from IRS.when asked for letter got angry..

Got a call from an 800-829-1040 number and the caller asked me to call back at 202-808-3661 to discuss about a criminal investigation related to my tax returns. I later realized that it's a scam.

If I report it to real IRS, can they take any action against these guys?

I also received a call on 11/8/2013 from phone number
202-808-3661 stated that it is IRS hot line and need to call immediately with my SS#
I realized it is scam because seems like not professional IRS calls ...just some one try to scary you and force you to call.

this number called and stated the IRS insists i call a 202# to keep from further actions against me! Although the number was infact IRS it still is a scam.
