5715998178

Was told to pay up within an hour. Quoted deliberate attempts to defraud the IRS. Threatened in several ways.Was told I ignored the three attempts to respond sent to me by certified mail. I then requested the tracking numbers and was told that was not possible.Big red flags.  BOGUS-Do not fall for this.

Received call saying irs was going to sue me. Called back and advised I work for irs and they hung up.

This is not the IRS don't fall for this fake scam . They just called this morning left a voice mail saying if I don't call back some thing a law suit and court. I say this scam in the news paper and never called back this the second time this week I got a call from some one acting like the IRS from 2 diffent numbers . The banks banks should have sign up about this scam so older people don't fall for it this people get even speak good English sounded like they 17 years old. Scammers not the the IRS

FYI, this is the complaint I submitted to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC): I received a missed call and voice mail from the following number, 5715998178 at 1:01 pm EST today, 11/12/2015. The voice mail is a pre-recorded message that states "Hello. This call is officially a final notice from IRS, Internal Revenue Service. The reason of this call is to inform you that IRS is filing lawsuit against you. To get more information about this case file, please call immediately on our department number 5715998178. I repeat, 5715998178. Thank you." I called the number back several times, but the line was busy. I finally got through to a representative, and I said, "Hello, I just got a voice mail from you guys." The representative immediately hung up the phone. I called back a few more times, got a busy signal, but finally got through to someone. The representative said "Hello" and I said, "Hello I just got a voice mail from you guys." "She said. "Ok, so you know what this is about?" I said, "You guys are suing me, correct? Then she hung up. I called back, and the same representative answered, and said she was sorry that we got disconnected, and that her name is Sandra Lewis, Badge # AL0894 and that she works for the IRS. I confirmed with her, and I asked her if this was the correct information to report to the FTC. She then asked me why I would want to do that. I told her it is because this seems very suspicious to me. She then told me she would pull up my file, and that she just needed my number. I gave her my number, again, as they already have it, and she tried to confirm my address. She had my correct address, but it made me uncomfortable that they have my home address, so I told her that was not my correct address. She asked me for my new address, and I told her I would not give her that information, then she immediately hung up on me.

I figured this was a scam, but I wanted to see exactly how much information they had on me. Everyone should report them to the FTC, if they get enough complaints they will get law enforcement involved.

my husband had a vm from this same number today. I googled the number and saw all the comments. Thanks!

These calls really do need to be investigated by the FBI.  What they are doing is a serious federal crime.

Received the same phone number and same message  on my cellphone. Big scam! Need to be stopped! Called IRS reported that phone number to them.

SUE ME IRS.  3 CALLS ON 11/11/15

I received a call on voice mail saying it was the IRS and to please call that number immediately.  I have yet to call them back, knowing the IRS doesn't call but forgot about the message until I was checking for messages and played it back today.
