It's the old IRS scam. Now they use different #s but it's an Indian answering. Probably started up again because of tax time.

It's the old IRS scam. Now they use different #s but it's still an Indian accent answering. Probably started up again because of tax time. Was a male today, couple if days ago it was a female.

Called saying I would be arrested for not filing my taxes on time. When requested to speak to a Supervisor they hang up

They left a message stating they are the IRS and I have commited tax fraud. They wanted my name, but I didn't give it to the lady after I said this is a scam and they need to get off my phone. She then stated they are looking for (she said my name) and she said that an attorney wouldn't be able to help me...so I said to her that my taxes were just filed, received my refund and they owner of where I get my taxes done was a previous IRS employee...she said look to get arrested and hung up!

OMG this scared the crap out of me but luckily my boyfriend said maybe it's a scam.  I googled the number they called from and yes.  Indian accents.  They terrified me into thinking I was going to go to prison for 5 years and be sued by the IRS.  The IRS had undisputable evidence and that I would not win the case.  They could transfer me to their payment arrangement department to settle for the amount of $2786.00.  I gave them a piece of mind when I saw these posts.
