Just picked up a message on my answering machine, was a recording saying: "We have been trying to reach you to inform you that the IRS is filing a suit against you" and to call 240/345-9091. In the process of checking on this # I didn't realize that my husband had already called them... My husband said that he party that answered spoke w/ a heavy accent. Answering "IRS" , he wanted the warranty # - said had none, asked for tel # and SS# gave a fake one...When he claimed to have gotten the records he then informed my husband he was going to explain and don't interrupt. He said that the IRS was filing a suit against us for the years 2009 - 2014 in the amount of $9,000.00. (never explained why or what for. We could either fight them in court or settle in making arrangements with him to get the amount paid off. At that point my husband had enough and did not want to hear anymore of this scam and hung up. We have always filed and paid if there were any taxes that were due. BEWARE ALL, DO NOT LET THE AUTHORATORIC VOICE IN THE RECORDING SCARE YOU..... The REAL IRS would have sent notification in writing and NOT leave a blanket message like this. Blessings to us all!
