I’m an Enrolled Agent with the IRS (Inactive). IRS does not initiate contacts by phone.  US mail only.   IRS does not file lawsuits.   Court action, if any is handled by the DOJ and all parties are entitled to legal assistance if it is a criminal matter.  But--tax disputes are for the most part civil matters.  90% of all IRS tax disputes are settled administratively.  IRS has absolutely no authority to call on local law enforcement for anything. Local law is never involved in IRS tax disputes. IRS does not threaten to involve local law enforcement or to arrest you for nonpayment of federal taxes.  IRS has no powers of arrest.    If LE is necessary, US Marshals do the job.  IRS does not cold call anyone and demand immediate payment of  money.  IRS does not ask for financial information over the phone.   IRS does not accept Green card money paks for payment in any case.  No one is prosecuted for ordinary tax disputes. IRS has absolutely no authority over anyone's professional license. Professional licensing is handled by state governments.  Yes, levies on property to satisfy an existing tax obligation do occur, but only after a very long period of negotiation. And yes, liens are placed on individuals but  usually after a lot of negotiation and a failure to reach a settlement.    All determinations of tax liability are subject to appeals.  All  contacts by the IRS are initiated by US mail.

I received the same call.  I knew that the IRS would not be calling me so I am sure that it is a scam of some kind

Received same call  its originating from India total scam

Received call from 206-488-1131 and person stated he was with IRS.  I knew it was a scam from the start since I retired from the IRS a year ago and I know the procedures that are followed.  As soon as I told him I was happy to have his phone number now, he hung up on me.

Voicemail message left on cell phone used by an elderly lady for emergency purposes only. Claims to be an Officer Adam Webster from the IRS. Threatens that if called party or their attorney of record do not return the call, then "good luck to you" because additional action "will enfold".
