Ditto Information above....implied immediate arrest if we did not respond to the telephone message. Checked out the telephone numbers given here first before calling. A scam for sure. Messages erased from our answering machine. Thanks for all responders who checked this out before me.

Caller asked for my husband to call him back. Said he was from the IRS.

Same story as related above, called this morning, left a dire message about pending tax fraud, Indian accent.  Said I should call back before I'm taken off to jail.  I don't have caller id but the number they left to call back was 201-234-8577.  The IRS doesn't call you...they send out letters.  This is someone trying to make some money illegally.

THIS IS A TOTAL SCAM! Just as above, I was contacted by a man with a thick Indian accent. He left a message stating that I had committed both tax fraud and tax evasion, and unless contacted immediately the matter would be processed by the federal claim courthouse and I would be placed under arrest. The number that appeared on my caller ID was in fact the number for the IRS 800-829-1040; however, the number that he provided for a return call was 201-234-8577.
Don't be fooled by these losers! According to the IRS website they use a spoofing app which makes the call appear to be from a legitimate source.
