The robocall scammer said that an arrest warrant was issued for me due to some issue with the IRS and that I was to call back. Didn't call back of course. Same scam that has been going on for a while.

Elderly mom was called and given this number to call back saying she did not respond to mailed letters and she had to call back asap to deal with incorrect tax filing and overpayment.

Someone from this telephone number calls and states they are call from the IRS, and that they are filing a Law suit against me. I need to contact them immediately.

- Appleton, WI, USA

Recording stated I will be arrested due to delinquent taxes owed and that I should call that number back. I didn't.

The scammer called my mother and told her she owed the IRS $6,000 and they were preparing a warrant for her arrest. Luckily, she informed them they needed to talk to her son. She got his name and phone number for me to call back. When I called there was a lot of call center background noise and the guy who answered said I reached the IRS. I asked for Officer John Miller as directed. He "transferred" me to Officer Miller (it was the same guy). Officer Miller asked my name, I gave him a fake one. He then asked if I was calling in reference to my mother and I said yes. He then told me to listen carefully to everything he says and not to interrupt him until he was done. He gave me a badge number (5740), a case no (cc1908), and rattled off a lot of alleged IRS Codes. Once he was done I told him to mail out the information. He then provided me the address associated with the number I was calling him from as to where they would send it (I never gave him the address). I told him we would go to court to get it resolved. He then asked if I loved my mother. I said, that has nothing to do with it and we'll be taking it to court. He then asked a series of other "yes" or "no" response questions, but I answered them with "we'll go to court" because I was not sure if he was trying to get me to say, "yes." At this point I told him I knew it was a scam. He still tried to convince me it was not and began cursing at me for not believing him. He then demanded I hang up if I did not believe him. I told him no, he should hang up (I figured the longer I kept him on the line, the less time he had to scam other people). After about a minute he eventually hung up.

- Valley, WA, USA

Received voicemail, it stated a warrant has been issued for my arrest and then answering machine cut off the rest

- Abilene, TX, USA

The phone call came through my cell. They left a message asking me to speak to Alex Brown because of a warrant that was issued due to a debt I owed to the IRS. If I did not call then the case would be handed over to my local police and I would be arrested. I called the number above back from my work phone number and spoke to a different man because Alex Brown was in a meeting. He asked my name and I only gave him my 1st name (no other info was given, no address, state, last name ect). He said since I called my file was now downloaded into the federal court. I asked why had I not received any mail and he said too much personal info would be on there and they could not send in case someone was to grab it. He said I had to hire a lawyer and then to pay approximately $400 in order to pull my case out of federal court. Mind you, he has no info other than my 1st name! I said I didn't have $400 and that I wouldn't have it especially for not having any paper proof that I owed money. He then said they were immediately turning over my information to my local police and that they would be coming to arrest me at my doorstep within 30 minutes. He said good luck and hung up the phone.

- Boise, ID, USA

I received a robo call phone message from the IRS telling me I was about to be sued and had to call their phone number immediately. I Googled the phone number left on the message and found that other people have received the same message. Don't bother calling as it does appear to be a real law suit. IRS would send a letter. Here is the website I found.

A consumer called and said he received a call from Mr. Smith who said he was from the IRS and I owed back taxes. If I didn't call them back and make a payment within 72 hours they were going to put me in jail.

- Colorado Springs, CO, USA

The recording states they are the IRS and this is the final warning concerning a lawsuit the IRS is filing against us. They called 5 times in one hour to press the point. It is a recording of a woman's voice.

- Heath, OH, USA

A man identifying himself as Officer Kevin Brown left a message on my phone to call him ASAP about a tax bill that I owed.. I returned his call because I knew I owed nothing and wanted to clear things up. He went into this big story of how I owed money (1976.00) for mistakes on my tax returns over the last 5 yrs. He wanted me to send the money to him......I refused to cooperate with him and told I was going to investigate a little farther,at which time he told me he was going to call the Police and have me arrested within 45 minutes. I told him to go ahead. I then contacted the ScamPulse.com about him.

- Pasco, WA, USA

I received a voicemail that they were from the IRS and that I was trying to fraud the gov and if i didn't return the call they would put out a warrant for my arrest. It was a woman voice and just left number to call back. 

- Newington, CT, USA

I had read that the actual IRS had cracked down on this type of scam. Apparently, not so. They're back.

On Monday, May 15, 2017, I received 5 robo-calls, spaced about two hours apart. from the "IRS" stating they were filing a lawsuit against me and if I wanted more info to call them at 952 236-6516.

This is an obvious hoax and previous reports about "IRS" scams clearly stated the the IRS does not conduct this type of telephone communications.

NEVER return the call as it may be a means to extract privacy info from you or to soak you for a call fee to a "metered" phone number. Just keep screening your calls with your answering machine

- Jacksonville, FL, USA

I received two phone calls with recorded messages stating that I owed the IRS money. The recording stated that I was facing a lawsuit and that I needed to call them back.

Received 5 robocalls stated that this was a final notice about money owed to the IRS. They told us to call back 505-395-9113. Instead of a name, they stated "Unassigned number."

 

Also reporting to the FTC as they were robocalls.
