me too!  Exactly the same....how many people will be scared & scammed by this crap?  I'm reporting to FCC & local police.

have been getting automated calls from this number to call them back. When I tried, it wouldn't even ring!

voicemail left stating name is Lauren Matthews from IRS, said I  need to not ignore this call.  Weird computer generated voice.  I tried calling back and got a fast busy.  I will not try calling again.

Do consider getting a call blocking device or phone.. You can google them and many are around $40.00 or so.If its a cell phone, some already have call blocking, if not, there are free apps on the web that will work for some. You can google this. If you have a smart phone, there is a free app called call control. Iphones appear to have apps also. Another one is called Mr. Number.
