Rec'd a call saying he was a criminal investagator for the IRS, and that he was calling saying my husband was going to be arrested in the next few hours, tax fraud for the years 2008-2012, I was on the phone and told him, my husband has been disable since 2006 and they hung up. I reported this to the police. They said  " DO NOT ANSWER YOUR PHONE IF ITS A  202 area code.

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 directly (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:

I recieved a call from the 202 number and the person said he was from the IRS CID and asked if I had a lawyer because there is a warrant out for my arrest do to Tax evasion from 2008 thru 2012.  They said that a local agent and a county officer would be paying me a visit.  "I TOLD THEM TO COME ON OVER" I would be waiting with any papaerwork needed to show I filed my taxes.  Needless to say I haven't had a visit yet and I checked with our local PD and there is no warrant filed for my arrest.  I wish they would show up at my door so I can show them alittle "Texas Hospitality".
