supposedly IRS, the IRS would NEVER call. They send letters first

Oh, NO! I just received a call from the IRS with my final (one should be so lucky) notice of a warrant issued for my arrest. I'm sure that if I called the (Cingular wireless number) my worries would be over if I followed their instructions to immediately wire money to some foreign account. One - I'm old - not stupid. Two - I don't answer unknown phone numbers. Three - the IRS wouldn't bother with me in the first place.

Just to let you know, Cingular Wireless is AT&T now

The IRS reminds people that they can know pretty easily when a supposed IRS caller is a fake. Here are five things the scammers often do but the IRS will not do. Any one of these five things is a tell-tale sign of a scam. The IRS will never:
Call to demand immediate payment, nor will we call about taxes owed without first having mailed you a bill..

Demand that you pay taxes without giving you the opportunity to question or appeal the amount they say you owe.

Require you to use a specific payment method for your taxes, such as a prepaid debit card.

Ask for credit or debit card numbers over the phone.

Threaten to bring in local police or other law-enforcement groups to have you arrested for not paying.

Called said they were an officer had a foreign accent ! Gave me the name of officer John Smith with GS5652 as ID number ... Said all my property will be seized and I will face up to 5 years in prison.
