This person called my elderly father and told him he would be arrested today if he didn't pay the money. Our family scrambled to get the money together. With the banks being closed on Columbus Day, Mr. Johnson (an Indian sounding man) gave the option of going to Walmart and purchasing a Greendot card. When I arrived at the Walmart the cashier thankfully warned me of various SCAMS and asked me if I was certain it was the IRS. After googling the number, I found this website. Unfortunately, my brother who is blind had already made a payment to this number using a Greendot card. If you have any information on where I can report this fraud other than this website, please let me know. Innocent people are being taken advantage of. I will check back to this site later! Thank you!
P.S. A person by the name of Kenneth Webster called my brother back and said that since his sister refused to pay so they were moving forward with legal proceedings. Note: I did not "refuse" to pay. I asked if there were any other payment options. He said that it was the only way and then hung up the phone. Kenneth Webster gave an ID #Kenneth Webster an ID #57803.
