Type of a scam Tax Collection
On Thu. Sep. 22, 2016, I`ve got a voice mail on my home phone with request to call back to the above mentioned phone.
The called left a message the call is form US Treasure Department.
When I called, the receiver (woman with slight accent) introduced herself as an officer of US Treasure Department.
She made a statement that US IRS issued the Warrant on my arrest because of nonpaid taxes for 2012 and 2014.
After this statement she transferred me to another women who introduced herself as an officer in charge of tax collection. She repeated the Warrant has been issued and she is planning to sign it, unless I will pay the outstanding balance for $4,016. Since banks have been closed at that time (7:30 PM), she suggested me to go to Wallmart and wire the money thru the Money Gram. She also told that I have to call her the same phone for the instruction what address the money should go when I will be at Wallmart. Since it was too late, she accepts the transaction to be made today in morning time.
When I hanged up, I call my CPA and explained about this scam. He also recommended me to go to IRS website to read similar stories.
The woman called me this morning at 9:30 AM if I am ready for transaction. When I told her she is on record line, she hanged up.
These people had my home phone No. and home address. To keep the communication line, I provided them with my Cel. phone No.
Me and my wife had a terrible evening yesterday. I begged you to find theses [censored] and prosecute them according to US Law. I am 70 years old person. I am also a person with disability. I can imagine some person may get a hart attack during this type of conversation.
