A voice message was left referring to tax violation tied with this number. I've only had the number since July, 2017 and filed my taxes in April. Can't see how my number would be tied to tax. Must be a SCAMMER.

An intentional fraud and lawsuit has been filed under my name by government.

Same as above...Starts out at what seems to be the middle of the message, but what I could make out says, ".. intentional fraud and lawsuit has been filed under my name by the government."  Screams scam.

When I pick up the phone.  there is a voice message saying I have fraud that IRS has been contacting me for the past six months but no response

Same deal....female leaving truncated msg about calling them, the US Gov, back...

I got the same issues what commented above. Also got another number (863) 784-3096 with the same female voice.

I received the same message. This is the second time this month from a 2 different numbers! And I do not owe any taxes! This is a very scary situation! Knowing I owe no taxes hearing a message like that still worries you. Then to find out it's a scam

Oh and also weird that the number that called me with the same message 2 weeks ago is Now out of service. Is there anything that can be done about this! I am actually pretty nervous cause I called it back 2 weeks ago and gave out my name and address! So yes I'm freaking out!

Total scam.  Originates in either India or Pakistan. Been going on for years.   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 or Itunes cards or similar 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.

Everyone please note:

Effective in April of 2017, the IRS will start using private debt collectors who may, in fact contact you. Note the IRS will notify you by mail that your account is being turned over to a private group.  The private collector will then send you another letter.  They may call you after that point.
