The scammer claimed to be the IRS with an Indian accent

I misdialed, thinking I was dialing the IRS to get my AGI (adjusted gross income) to complete my tax return, when in fact I had dialed the scammer. IRS is 800-908-9946 and I misdialed 800-909-9946. A man with an Indian accent took my debit bank card no but not my acct no, as well as my Soc Sec no, mother’s maiden name, address, etc. at the end he put on a Walmart advertisement and then hung up! The same day he withdrew $1.95 with the reference 1 Perk Place. After that I started getting 1 Perk Place email adverts.

Identified as IRS and threatened to have me arrested or talk to a marshal

I received a call from 405-777-7038 claiming to be the IRS. The number shows up as Potential Spam Caller even though it is a local area code, and when I dial it back it doesn't connect.

- Germantown, TN, USA

IRS Two calls from 938-201-1086 to my daughter's cell phone stating "Hi this is the IRS resource center it looks like you have been flagged and your stimulus payment may be in jeopardy if you do not promptly resolve this important matter”. It is a robotic call. When you call the number, they tell you to call a foreign accented man who claims to be a special agent answers the phone, gives you a phony badge number, and tries to bully you into paying some type of fee to get your stimulus payment. He was very hard to understand, so I didn’t catch all of it, but obviously not real.

- Memphis, TN, USA

Text message included a link stating, "Access benefits here" in regards to the stimulus checks saying that the IRS needed to verify my information today in order to guarantee successful payment. It was very believable and looked official. I might have actually fallen for it but I already received my 2nd stimulus check in my bank account.

- Memphis, TN, USA

I got an email saying they were the IRS telling me to check for my stimulus package by giving my name and ss#. It was from a random gmail account. I deleted it immediately

- Lutherville Timonium, MD, USA

I receive an automated call from someone claiming to be from the IRS stating that I should contact my attorney as criminal charges were going to be filed against me for tax evasion and fraud. I was supposed to call them immediately to prevent this from being worse.

Received voicemail stating "...Legal enforcement action has been filed against your social security number"

IRS received legal petition notice concerning a tax fraud against myself. If the matter goes to the Federal claims courthouse or before I get arrested I will need to call 917-504-8559 ASAP. Officer Robert Morris with IRS.

- Cincinnati, OH, USA

I received a call for the first time today 1-17-19 around 12:30pmEST and I answered they said they had been trying to get a hold of me for six months and of course they never tried to get a hold of me once, about my back taxes. It was a live call, it was a man and said he was calling from the IRS.

- Canton, OH, USA

They call multiple times a day, and say that My family is being investigated for frauding them. (The IRS) I am a single mother and alays file my taxes, and have never had any issues. I traced the phone number to this company, and see that they scam people all over the U.S. The place it traced back to was *** *** *** -NY
