My phone never even rang, I just had a new voicemail which said:

"Internal Revenue Services filed a lawsuit against you regarding tax deficiency and tax fraud. Ignoring this will be an intentional second attempt to avoid federal law. For any further information immediately speak to our federal agent call back number 618-500-0155 I repeat 618-500-0155 thank you"

I didn’t call the number back so I do not know if they attempted to take money. but I am guessing they would have.

I rc’vd an automated phone call from 1-646-682-0766, saying "this is the IRS" please call this number back. So I hung up and called the number and when the guy answered he ask my name, so I gave it to him and he hung up. I waited a few minutes and I called back the guy answered and he told me he needed to verify some information, and ask if my name was ____, I said yes, and he begin telling me the IRS has filed a lawsuit against me and there is a warrant out for my arrest. I said I’m sorry excuse me, and he hung. Thank You!!
