    A cell phone received call from this number - a recorded voice saying the IRS was filing suite against us and to call 202-239-1270. The 202 number appears to be non working as it just rings twice and goes to a fast busy signal. The 718 number is answered by a fax machine/modem or computer.

    How can I verify whether or not a debt collector is legitimate?
    Here are a few warning signs that could signal a debt collection scam:

    The debt collector threatens you. Legitimate debt collectors probably won't claim that they'll have you arrested or claim that they or their employees are law enforcement officers.

    The debt collector refuses to give you information about your debt or is trying to collect a debt you do not recognize. You have certain rights to ask a debt collector to verify the debt. You can use this sample letter to request this information. Ask for an explanation in writing before you pay.

    The debt collector refuses to give you a mailing address or phone number.

    The debt collector asks you for sensitive personal financial information. You should never provide anyone with your personal financial information unless you are sure they're legitimate.
    If you think that a caller may be a fake debt collector:

    Ask the caller for his or her name, company, street address, telephone number, and professional license number. Many states require debt collectors to be licensed. Check the information the caller provides you with your state officials, or the state in which the debt collector holds a license. If the caller refuses or is unable to provide you with information about his company, or if you can’t verify the information he provides, do not give money to the caller or company.

    Tell the caller that you refuse to discuss any debt until you get a written "validation notice." This notice must include:
    The amount of the debt
    The name of the creditor you owe
    A description of certain rights under the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act
    If a caller refuses to give you all of this information, consider requesting this information in writing or seeking assistance before paying the debt to make sure the debt, and the company, are valid.

    Tip: You can consider sending the collector a letter requesting the information by using one of the CFPB's sample letters. You can also submit a complaint to the CFPB or you can contact your state Attorney General’s office.

    Do not give the caller personal financial or other sensitive information. Never give out or confirm personal financial or other sensitive information like your bank account, credit card, or Social Security number unless you know the company or person you are talking with is a real debt collector. Scam artists, like fake debt collectors, can use your information to commit identity theft such as:
    Charging your existing credit cards
    Opening new credit card or checking accounts
    Writing fraudulent checks
    Taking out loans in your name

    Contact your creditor. If the debt is legitimate – but you think the collector may not be – contact your creditor about the calls. Share the information you have about the suspicious calls and find out who, if anyone, the creditor has authorized to collect the debt.

    Report the call. Submit a complaint with the CFPB or get in touch with your state Attorney General's office with information about suspicious callers.

    Stop speaking with the caller.If nothing else works and you believe the calls are fraudulent, send a letter demanding that the caller stop contacting you, and keep a copy for your files.

    Tip: You can use this sample letter to write a letter demanding the debt collector stop contacting you. By law, real debt collectors must stop calling you if you ask them to in writing.

    Tip: If you're having trouble with debt collection, you can submit a complaint with the CFPB online or by calling (855) 411-CFPB (2372).

    Caller ID says "payphone 718-758-9741", but recording says call IRS at 202 239-8650. FYI...the IRS sends letters first.

    I got message on my home phone saying they were the IRS and have been trying to reach me because the IRS is filing suit against me.  I needed to call 206-855-3282 right away.  I looked up the area code, and it was for the Seattle area.  Then I looked at my caller ID, and the number was Pay Phone 718-758-9741 in the NYC area. Oh sure!

    Got a call saying they were from the IRS and that they were filing a lawsuit against me. Listed a second number for me to call to 'learn more about the case number' I figured it was a scam since it was listed as a payphone on caller ID.

    Got a call from this number, early afternoon.  Automated message which told me that the "IRS was filing a law suit against me." and that I needed to call 202-239-8780 for more information.  I called that number (from an unrelated land line) and it is a Magic Jack number that is not assigned yet.
