Robocall saying I owe money on my tax return. Criminal Division IRS. Call this number now to speak to an IRS agent to resolve issue of owed taxes. I called them on my untraceable cell phone, it does not give my name. I told them to stop scamming people.

I heard some very foul language from the person on the phone. I said a few select words, then hung up.

I recieved a phone call and didn’t answer so they left a voicemail. When i listened to it , it was saying to act immedeatly because the IRS was suing me for not paying taxes or something like that but i called back out of curiosity and they said it was a federal agent and that they were suing me and i said No you are not because they would have contacted me by mail first. He said they had attempted to contact me multiple times and i said NO YOU DIDN’T. I know you are a scam because a bot left a voicemail, you didn’t contact me by mail first and i dont file for taxes because i have never been employed and i get listed as a dependant and that i have no income and he said that they had made a mistake and that i owe and so i said well if that was really true you would be contacting the person who was filing not me and that i was going to go to the police and he said i had no authority to do that then told me to *** *** *** and started yelling innapropriate things to me. Beware.

A computer recording left a message stating the IRS had a warrant for my arrest and that I needed to call the number back to avoid seizure of property.

I called the number and stated it seemed like a scam. The man who answered the number started cursing at me, “you think this is a [censored]ing scam!? We’re going to find your [censored]ing husband in the night.” I hung up after a few sentences.

It was really upsetting.

Victim Location 94550

Type of a scam Tax Collection

Received many calls from "Scam likely" number, robocall, stating that I have serious tax related allegations charged against me and local police will take me in if I don’t call into 6463553159 w/in 24 hours". English is very broken (i.e. use of English sentence is extremely fragmented and hard to make sense), hence raising a flag that this is an international scam. Note that I’ve received many calls from these folks, hence discrediting their authenticity.

Thank you.
