Scammer's phone2027548290,929-390-2338 CountryUnited States Victim LocationOH 43140, USA Type of a scamGovernment Grant
I've been getting calls on my cell phone from the IRS. They say I've been chosen for a $7000 grant. They gave me an ID number. to call back. She asked me if I was married. When I call it back, it's a NY number, and they say they are with the Grants and Treasure dept, I spoke to Ashley and she told me to check it out with ScamPulse.com as they are legit. They want me to go to Walmart and buy a $200 refundable card, and call them back. I called them back at 929-390-2338 because I was already at Walmart. Some calls it's a guy, other times it's a girl. All of the numbers look like they are coming from Washington DC.

I've been getting calls on my cell phone for the last month from IRS. They ask for my name and social security number. I said I don't pay taxes, and he hung up. I got another call, and they left a message about fraud.

Started with a ROBO call stating that I was under investigation. Most of call was not understandable. I called the number back 254-829-5136 which came up from Texas. The man sounded very garbled and hard to speak English. When I questioned his being from USA he called me a xxxxxx xxxxxx. That let me know he was a scam. I also remember the initial call said if I did not respond I would have a warrant issued by some Judge name I could not understand. Wish I could give more but I was caught off guard. Best thing I did was ask him to confirm who he is!

I got a call from a Steven Wilson from # 212-547-9867 who said he was with the IRS and told me I needed to "straighten up because he was an officer of the law". I hung up on him but he called back from a different # 541-994-3636. I read in the paper not too long ago that if we get calls like these then we need to report the #s which is what I did with the BBB

I have received voicemails from these above numbers telling me that the IRS has found fraudulent reporting on my tax filing, or fraudulent activity connected with my SS #. One of the calls identified herself as Deputy Director Samantha from Social Security Administration saying my SS# has been compromised. One or two stated my SS # was going to be suspended because of suspected fraud. All of them were electronic digital voicemails rather than real people. I obviously did not return these “urgent” calls, believing them to be scams phishing for my SS #. Two calls were from CT (Stamford & Redding) & one was from Manchester, NH.

I received a scam about owing back taxes. I am caught up on all of my taxes, but the caller said that I owe 5,000 in back taxes or I would go to jail. He wanted all kind of information from me. I told him that I pay all of my taxes and hung up on him.

Received call from an entity claiming to be the IRS. Stated that if I did not contact them (aka the IRS) back at the number provided that legal action would be taken against me. This phone call was followed up within five minutes by a restricted number with a live person telling me they were calling from the US Treasury. The first phone number was not restricted - 786-504-1762.

Voice mail said " We have tried to notify you regarding these issue in previous six months but we had never got response from you.So it has been considered as an intentional fraud and lawsuit has been filed under you name by the United States Government.You may call our department number on 218-419-0262.I repeat it's 218-419-0262.Thank you. When I called back they said his name was George and he was from the IRS,when I started questioning him he asked if I was calling back from the same number,I hased him to tell me if I was and he hung up on me.When I called back the call was rejected. I then called from a land line and it was George AGAIN. He AGAIN answered the phone"IRS" I asked why he was calling me and he wanted to know if I was calling from the same phone number that was called,I said "you tell me" and he hung up on me. THEN the land line phone rang from phone # 311-898-0274,when I tried calling back the line was busy. I tried calling the 311-898-0274 from my cell phone ant the number could not be completed as dialed. I am really tired of the SCAM'S CAN WE PLEASE MAKE THEM STOP ????
