Type of a scam Government Agency Imposter

This number has called our office three times and once you answer, an automated voice message comes on saying that it is with the United States Treasury and if we ignore this call we will be in violation with the law. It gives you the phone number 561-437-5079 to call back. When I did, there was a foreign man that answered and pretended that he needed an appointment and said he was an existing patient, he didn’t want to give me his name and hung up. I called back and he was angry that "I hung up" and began asking me personal information about our practice. I hung up after this and told him not to call back, they called back off another number 317-707-4902 with the same automated voice message.

Yesterday we received a phone call, which my husband didn’t answer since he didn’t recognize the number, so they left a message. "IRS Badge #9165 call us immediately at this number 510-686-7918 to settle this tax fraud issue. If you don’t you may be subject to arrest"

This morning I called the number from my business phone and after 5 rings a foreign speaking male answered United States Treasury. I hung up.

I got a voice mail saying I had a Federal Tax case filed against me. I called them back. It sounded like a boiler room. The woman with a foreign accent asked me to confirm my contact information. She began talking to me about my taxes this year. She asked if I prepared them. She asked if that was a CPA, I said yes. She said well we’re talking about 2013 -2015. I said the same person did them. She said I owed $2,000.She said the preparer’s name isn’t on the form, it’s your name. I said I needed the information in a certified letter, and she hung up. I called back, and asked if I need the info in writing will I be hung up on. And he hung up on me.

Type of a scam Government Grant

This "agency" has called me from a variety of phone numbers claiming that they are with the US treasury and are offering a government grant. I am getting up to 14 calls per day from them at different numbers.

They want me to put 200 dollars on a WalMart gift card, and by doing so I will be registered with the US treasury and can claim 9600 in grant money.

This is harassment on a daily basis.

At 5:30 I got a call from the United States Treasury. It was automated saying that there was a lawsuit out for me and if i chose to ignore it I would be in trouble. I called them back and it was a scam. They said it was for not reporting full income for 2014 and that they were the legal department. They said I was already facing 2 years in prison. I spoke to multiple people. They asked who I filed my taxes with and at the time I couldn’t remember because I was nervous. They named off a number of companies till I remembered which one. I spoke to Adams Jones (badge number 7561) I asked what i could do to try to solve the issue and they said they had to contact the officer (Christopher Scott) badge number 6506213 about this and eventually the solution was $5600 to pay by credit card. I then knew it was a scam

told me I couldn’t discuss it with any other third party and if I did I could be in prison for 3 more years

The call lasted about 45 minutes

Victim Location 21804

Type of a scam Tax Collection

I recieved a call from someone claiming to be from the US Treasury telling me that I owed $5,000 due to an error on my 2013 tax return. I was immediately suspicious because they didn’t have my first name. They did have my mailing address. They asked if I had filed my own taxes. This was also suspicious because on my tax returns, it clearly indicates that they are self-prepared.

When I asked why I had not been contacted prior to this if the situation had grown so urgent, they claimed that they had sent two notices to my home address, and that I had not replied.

They said that after I hung up, they would dispatch the local authorities to my home address to arrest me.

The caller had a thick foreign accent, but this did not tip me off, because many US companies use call centers located in India. The phone number appeared to be from California on my caller ID.
