I got a call from this number April 29 2014, saying that they were the Internal Revenue Services and that I have an balance due with them and automatically I knew it was a scam because for one and most importantly the IRS never calls you they send out a letter and for two they never asked for me by name and for three they never said how much the balance was, they just said I owe a balance with them, I've also been cursed at by them and I did not appreciate that. I really hope that they really get nailed for this, they really need to get what they deserve.

Got a call. They knew my name and city I live in. No other information. Said he was from IRS. Said I owe back taxes. I believe they are using an outdated source because I did owe back taxes 3 years ago. He did his whole going to jail not passing go shpiel. When I had enough of the scam, I asked for his name title supervisor name and ext. He hung up. For scammers, they're not very clever.

My mom got a message from these creeps on her answering machine. I told her it was probably a scam, but decided to see if anybody else got calls from them. It's bad enough we have to put up with the Obama feds stealing from us. Now these crooks are claiming to be from the IRS to steal from us.
