Same, dudes, same. Fake IRS bozos threatening to sue, twice today. Best defense is a good offense, and this is the best tactic I've ever heard to get these creeps to stop calling: if you answer the phone, speak in a very soft voice so they have to turn up the volume on THEIR end, and hopefully, they have a Bluetooth in. Then, after they've gone through their phony (and illegal) threats, BLAST THEM OUT with a whistle, cowbell, or air horn like ones used at sporting events--right into the phone (protect your own ears in the process). Maybe, just maybe, they'll suffer some temporary hearing loss which will prevent them from calling others for a day or two. If enough of us did this, it would hinder their efforts! Sadly, they have scammed millions of dollars already, mainly from the elderly and from young people who aren't aware of what's going on. They also may say that you owe money for a bill or from "not showing up for jury duty," or from some other fake lawsuit. :)
