This scammer's method is to threaten arrest and legal fees, acting as if you have been caught trying to avoid paying a portion of your taxes. He tries to confuse you and keep you on the phone so you can get his money to him immediately by way of government bonds, (the IRS can't take credit cards at this time). For every response you give him over the phone to his accusations and threats, he has a comeback that includes another threat, no matter how ludicrous. Hang up. Don't let him waste your time or raise your blood pressure. He will follow up your hang up with a bogus 911 call and then another call from an 845 450-2985 with the same threats and wishing you luck if you don't respond. Amazingly enough, I was never arrested.
