- LouisI just got a call from this phone number, left a message on my voice mail. The automatic voice informed me about IRS open case against me and this is the last chance to stop it. Clearly it is a scam. Don't pay attention and block this phone number. Two years ago I went to a real IRS investigation, and IRS always notified you the open a case by letter, no by phone call.
