This number called this morning and said it was the IRS and that we had a pending lawsuit. I went online and saw that it was a scam. Called the number back and it went to voicemail, that said it was a majic jack account. Pretty sure that the IRS doesn't use majic jack.

This number called this morning and said it was the IRS and that we had a pending lawsuit. I called back and it just rang and rang.  I am reporting it to the IRS.

This is a Pakistan or India based IRS scam. Do not fall for it. The IRS does not initiate any legal action via phone.

As general background information, here are a few things you can do:
1) Report it to TIGTA under http://www.treasury.gov/tigta/contact_report_scam.shtml especially if you have become a victim (lost money, gave personal information etc.). You can also file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission at ftc.gov/complaint (include “IRS Telephone Scam" in your complaint). This way you can also help the government establish specific fraud patterns.

2) Help kill their phone lines but not by calling them back direction  (the number may be spoofed and repeat calls by you may - under exceptional circumstances- amount to harassment). The scammers use Voice over IP lines (e.g. magicJack (Ymax corporation)) to make it seem as if they are calling from the US. This is always against these companys' terms of service and can lead to immediate termination of their contract and blocking of their IP addresses for future attempts to register. Do a reverse look up of their telephone number (e.g. www.whitepages.com) to identify the Voice over IP provider and report it to the company and/or law enforcement (local police and/or state attorney general)

3) If you are really annoyed: call or write to your representative in Congress. As these scams happen all over the country maybe this will trigger a reaction and provide US law enforcement agencies with the political backing and the resources they need to work in India and Pakistan together with local authorities (it can happen, read: http://www.ndtv.com/article/india/ex-call-cen ... mmission-320427). A US task force has already been set up in Jamaica to nab scammers there (see http://www.ice.gov/doclib/news/library/reports/cornerstone/cornerstone7-1.pdf). You can use the following template for your letter (more powerful!) or email:

Got a call from this number and same thing stated from the IRS. When called back just went to voice mail. Be aware everyone

I am now getting emails from these people claiming to be a federal marshal, James Marshall. He has an arrest docket # attached and says my employer has been notified.  Funny thing is I am currently unemployed.  This is a scam, beware.  I am not calling the number attached or sending any emails. Claims to be an attorney for IRS.
