What can we do. I just played stupid. Just to see how far theay would go trying to not discourage them in any way till the very end. Then they asked me my info i gave them what they needed. All fake i just made it up ssd number address names. They bought it. I said what can we do. And what's your name. Mike Johnson. id irm- 2075. Then he said something about the federal building and cash. I asked well how much. He said $ nine thousand seven hundred dollars and 80 cents. I just laughed keeping it quite. Then he said i owned the irs from 2010 through 2015. I said okay what can we do please let's do something. I even begged him. He asked do you have the money? I said yes can i send it to you now. He said no we don't take cc card. I said how about money orders. No we can't he said do you have money in bank. Yes i said. Do you drive? Yes i said. Bold on I'll get my manager. Ok please hold.

Caller ID says "Beaverton OR". They leave a message which says, "Hi, this message is intended to contact you. My name is Kevin Mason and i'm calling regarding an enforcement action executed by the US treasury intending your serious attention. Ignoring this will be an intentional attempt to avoid initial appearance before a magistrate, judge, or a grand jury for a federal criminal offense. My number <pause> is 971 317 4003. I repeat 971 317 4003. I advise you to cooperate with us and help us to help you. Thank you." It sounds like "Kevin" is reading from a script and is not a proficient reader nor the brightest bulb on the tree. Kevin has a foreign accent. There are a number of grammatical errors here. More importantly, some of the phrasing is not American English. Avoid was pronounced "Awoid", and advise was pronounced "adwise" (perhaps they learned english from Mr. Chekhov).

I call back after hours (using *67 to block my number). Their message is 3 minutes of silence.

So they leave a message pretty clearly not from an American. They spoof their caller ID. They call me from the wrong coast. They can't be called back. All indicate a SCAM.

This is the famous IRS SCAM. 100% bogus. The IRS does not work this way.

There are numerous telephone and email scams in which individuals claim to be employees of the Treasury Department. These scammers often state that they are from the “Department of Legal Affairs,” offer grant money in exchange for you wiring a small payment, or threaten to arrest you within a short period of time unless payment is made. Do not provide personal information or payment to these individuals. Their actions are crimes under Titles 18 and 31 of the United States Code, and the Treasury Office of Inspector General is working to stop them.

If they claim to be from Treasury, report it to OIGCounsel@oig.treas.gov with a description. If it was a phone contact, include:
the exact date and time that you received the call(s)
the phone number of the caller
the geographic location and time zone where you received the call
a description of the communication.

If they claim to be from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) or it is about taxes, report it to the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration at:

I looked into reporting it. Unfortunately, there is no way to do this without providing my name and contact info. If I can't report anonymously, I do not intend to report at all.
