The Filth-world scam artists are hitting the phones hard again, with bogus claims that the recipient of the call has committed a tax-related violation. Unlike the countless other calls with some dirt-bag Indian/Pakistani boiler-room call center piss-ant introducing themselves with a phony Western name, the latest call and variation on the tired old theme (originating from this particular number at 12:16 PDT today) was obviously a computer-generated text-to-speech spiel - with Ms. Roboto identifying "herself" as "Officer Brianna Scott of the United States Treasury". Interestingly, just 16 minutes prior to this call, another call from a different number (773 area code rather than 770) with a very similarly-worded, recorded script-based message - read by an Indian/Pakistani male was received at 12:00 PM PDT. Unfortunately, I'm sure that there are too many fellow Americans who haven't learned about this ruse, and are taking the bait, which further perpetuates this scam.
