Irs collections

NOT IRS - they do not call you and demand your lawyers name.  Some scam demanding you give them your lawyer's name

Look up the name and phone number for either your local District Attorney or your State Attorney General and give them that information.

Call aggressive and said a warrant was out for me & I would be arrested in 30 minutes or less. Fortunately, since they said I could not hang up my phone, I used a 2nd phone and my CU said No and IRS site said a scam. VERY believable!

Irs is arresting me

Typical annoying robo-call from those good-for-nothing "IRS" scammers.  This time (most likely to hide their Indian or Russian accents) they used a text-to-speech "female" voice.  The voice reported that she is "Officer Sarah Williams," and that the IRS is bringing criminal charges against me, and needs me or my lawyer to call them back immediately, as the issue is "extremely time-sensitive."  Yeah, right...

irs scamer

Received a phone call from these idiots stating criminal charges were being brought against someone.  Never addressed who they were asking for.  Need attorney to call them
I wish idiots like this could be sued for ever dime they are worth.  Very threatening call.

I hope this number is a scam number

Hilarious computer generated (female) voice message:
"Sarah Williams calling from the legal Department of internal Revenue services, this is in reference to criminal law suit filed against you your case number is see h 76295 the moment you receive this message. I need you or your retained attorney of records to return the call the issue at hand is extremely time sensitive. My phone number is 800 for 212344 do not disregard this message and do return the call now if you don't return the call, and I don't hear from your attorney either then the only thing I can do is wish you a good luck as the situation totally unfolds on you. Goodbye."

There are numerous telephone and email scams in which individuals claim to be employees of the Treasury Department. These scammers often state that they are from the “Department of Legal Affairs,” offer grant money in exchange for you wiring a small payment, or threaten to arrest you within a short period of time unless payment is made. Do not provide personal information or payment to these individuals.  Their actions are crimes under Titles 18 and 31 of the United States Code, and the Treasury Office of Inspector General is working to stop them.

If they claim to be from Treasury, report  it to OIGCounsel@oig.treas.gov with a description.  If it was a phone contact, include:
the exact date and time that you received the call(s)
the phone number of the caller
the geographic location and time zone where you received the call
a description of the communication.

If they claim to be from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) or it is about taxes, report it to the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration at:

I got the same demanding phone call a few months ago. They will send out the marshals for my arrest in 30 minutes!

Yes yes yes!! Perfect and best advice to anyone receiving these calls. Block the number once your report it. Please warn any family and friends who may be vulnerable to these types of calls so they don't get scammed.

SCAM!!  Do not respond or send money.  Report and block.  For some reason they always hang up when I answer the phone, too bad because I have a response ready.

The IRS will never initiate contact via phone.

Fake IRS caller. The IRS does not call - they correspond in the mail.

IRS scammer

This accusation is abuse  and didnt need to feel i was in trouble with  IRS .

Please DO NOT believe this call. It is a SCAM.
Too bad there are people in the world that make a living on throwing fear, and stealing money from others. Shame on them :-(

You do understand that the IRS has no powers of arrest as to ordinary tax disputes.  You do understand that only a judge can issue warrants.  You do understand that IRS has no power to issue warrants.   You do understand that no one in the US is proscuted for ordinary tax disputes.  If you didn't know these things, you know them now.  And yes, you can hang up your phone.  There is nothing believable about these kinds of calls.  Nothing.  This scam's been all over hte media.  How could you miss it?

Total scam.  Originates in either India or Pakistan.   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 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.
