I got a call from this number and I said that US Marshals were going to come pick me up in 24 hours if I do not pay audit amount I asked him what year and from 2009 to 2014 and I kept asking to speak to someone higher and then they kept giving me round round and round

Have a message saying I have a lawsuit. Last notice**

Getting calls non stop...leaving messages from IRS.....The IRS would not leave a message like that. SCAM

Was told to go to the Walgreens and call him .. Jeff Morris and pay 200.00 to keep the IRS from
Seizing my bank account

Robocall using broken English & incorrect wording to inform me that "IRS FILLING law suit against you." (um... I FILL my gas tank, & FILE a suit)
  Pretty sure the government wouldn't wait until August to when I filed before February.

I have gotten multiple calls from these scammers saying they are IRS.

got a phone call from this number and (585)542-8413, and indian speaking person told me that there was a lawsuit against me from IRS and if I didn't pay up $5.575 within 2 hours the police would come and get me from my job ( I am a nurse so that would've been very embarrassing), they wouldn't let me hang up the phone until they got the money, I got very scared and hung up, ran back into my work and my supervisor called the number and told them that they were being recorded which they were ( we screen our calls), the man hung up. the IRS doesn't call people, they send mail or show up in person. don't get scammed, they have gotten money from innocent people already and do NOT give them any of your information.

I got a call from this number today and when I asked the person his name he said Michael Brown. I told him if his name is Michael Brown since he sounds foreign in the India/Pakistan accent I'll eat the paper I wrote his name down on. I refused to give him my name and told him I knew this was a scam and I was reporting them to authorities and he hung up.

Keep getting calls constantly from this number telling me it's the IRS and I need to call this number to speak to an agent. I never answer and they just keep calling. This morning at 6:30 a.m.

Total scam.  Do not return the calls.  Ignore and block the calls.  IRS does NOT initiate contact by phone.  US mail only.

Total scam.  Originates in either India or Pakistan.   Block and ignore.   DO NOT RETURN THE CALL!

I’m an Enrolled Agent with the IRS (Inactive). IRS does not initiate contacts by phone.  US mail only.   IRS does not file lawsuits.  IRS has enough administrative authority under the IRS Code and related regulations to collect all taxes lawfully due the federal government.     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 as related to ordinary tax disputes.  Having a deficiency in taxes owed by way of audit is NOT a crime.  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.
.

Get these calls about twice a day for 2 weeks now stating they are the IRS and are about to file a law suit.  I never call them back and I block their number but they call on a different line.  It is always from the 206 area code though.  I know this is a scam because the IRS doesn't call you.  You get notified by mail.  The only time you need to worry is if the letter is registered (lol)

On 08/02/2016 at 10:00 a.m., a man with a foreign accent called and left a message that my physical residence was under federal investigation. I probably should not have called back but did, received an answer, and told the guy it was a scam and not to call here anymore.

I forgot to include the originating phone number. It was 206-472-6007.
