7162428250

just got the same message from Justin Williams representing the IRS, I am reporting the call!!!

Same here very threatening- saying they had 4 criminal charges on me.  Well....sorry to admit folks I have done Fed Time and I never got a phone call first

Just got the same call from Justin Williams in my voice mail. Thanks to the people who set up this community board to inform others of the scam.

I just received a phone call about the same thing, I told them that I do all my dealings in the mail and hung up

he said that he was from irs and wanted to know if I had a lawyer, the # was 1-716-242-8250,i told them I do all my dealings with the mail and I hung up, I could hear a lot of foreign people in the background, this is so messed up, I tried to call back from a land line but no one would answer.

Yeah got one from them too. Scared me for a minute so I looked up the number and found people had the exact same script said to me... no mention of my name.  Sorry "Justin Williams" won't be calling you back. I'm pretty sure some people probably did respond and probably paid something,  I just hope they shut this down asap.  The faster they do the less people they can get.

The exact same thing just happened to me!

Ok, so the exact same thing just happened to me  Justin Williams, guy sounded like he was from the middle east.  Threatened to put a warrant for my arrest.  He hung up on me twice when I asked what this was about and there's no way that I would have a tax fraud.  I'm so irritated right now!  How is he still doing this to all of these people?

Same crap just happened to my sister. Guy named Eric Foster left urgent threatening messages. When she called back, she got "his associate" who threw every threat known to man on the table, seize car, freeze bank acct, suspend license, show up at door in 15 mins with subpoena to arrest her, bla blabla. Sister is not computer savvy and I googled the phone number and found this page and other pages. Thank you ALL for taking the time to post this scam.  Unbelieveable!

I just received the same message about 10 minutes ago. Beware this is a scam and I plan on reporting this the the FBI, local police and the IRS. Then let's see who this Justin Williams calls now.

I just received the same call a few moments ago

I I received the same message from justin but said he was from IRI on 8/1/14!  This company should be arrested!

They are located in India and beyond the reach of US law.

This is a Pakistan or India based IRS scam. Do not fall for this. The IRS does not initiate any legal action via phone.  
Read http://www.treasury.gov/tigta/press/press_tigta-2014-03.htm

There are a few things you can do:
1) Report it to TIGTA under http://www.treasury.gov/tigta/contact_report_scam.shtml
2) Help kill their phone lines. The scammers use voice over IP lines (e.g. magicjack (Ymax corporation)) to make it seem as if they are calling from the US. This is always against these companys' terms of use and can lead to termination of their contract. However most of the time only law enforcement can initiate the contact if you yourself are not a customer. Therefore, report it also to your local law enforcement agency.
3) Ultimately this is a case for the FBI legal attache in Islamabad or New Delhi. So if you are really annoyed: call or write to your representative in Congress. As these scams happen all over the country maybe this will trigger a reaction and provide US law enforcement agencies the political backing and the resources they need to work in India and Pakistan with local authorities. Such a task force has already been set up in Jamaica to nab scammers there (see http://www.ice.gov/doclib/news/library/reports/cornerstone/cornerstone7-1.pdf). It can happen on the subcontinent as well if you only take a little time to write and voice your anger. You can use the following template for your letter or email:

Dear Senator/Representative XXX

As your constituent, I am writing to urge you to demand decisive action from the FBI, the IRS and other federal agencies against organized crime directed against American citizens from abroad.

As widely reported by local and national media all across the United States and warned about by the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (see http://www.treasury.gov/tigta/press/press_tigta-2014-03.htm) a tidal wave of fraud using Internet phones has hit the United States. Millions of dollars already have been stolen by criminals impersonating federal officers while hiding in countries like India and Pakistan, where most of the calls originate. There seems to be no end of it in sight.

I have personally been targeted by these scammers but it is the most vulnerable among us that I am concerned about primarily. The scheme is specifically singling out those that can least defend themselves against these crimes, in particular the elderly. I am also worried that given the origin of these gangsters, the money stolen from US citizens may be used for financing of terrorism or other activities directed against the national interests of the United States. But in spite of this clear and present danger to our country and its citizens I have seen no action worth mentioning by the FBI, the IRS or other federal agencies so far.

As a member of Congress overseeing the law enforcement agencies tasked with fighting fraud and ensuring national security, I implore you to make sure that they act on these threats and are given all the necessary resources to target these criminals in cooperation with foreign law enforcement.

Yours sincerely

A man called name Justin Williams left a message on my phone threaten if I didn't call him back or my attorney he would send the police this guy has the same voice as the last man who threaten me before  his name is Robert Henry but it was a different number they are all scam

Got the same message on Friday, August 1. Also ,Justin Williams from the IRS, claiming there are 4 criminal charges on me and if I or my attorney don't return the call, a warrant will be issued for my arrest. I didn't call back and reported it to TIGTA.

I just got the same message.

Received a voicemail from this number the guy said his name was Justin Williams and said he was from the IRS and they had 4 felony warrants against me and if I or my attorney didn't contact him I would be arrested.
