A man that said his name was David Johnson badge 612498 was calling to say I was chosen for an audit from 2010 - 2015 and IRS found I owed 4,896.00. He proceeded to read a statement telling me that I would be arrested, sued, fingerprinted, taken from work, accounts would all be locked for 5 years, assests sold, etc. If I contested I would have to pay additional $50,000.00. I hung up and tried calling the IRS for any verification and could not get a live person. Called Better Business instead. Yep, a scam

I was a victim of fraud / I purchased at a rite aid 1900 Duluth Hwy 120 4 [email protected] $495.00 each Greendot Money Packs to allegedly pay a bond for an alleged warrant for my arrest by a Gwinnett County Sherrif. I was told I had “failure to appear” and “contempt of court” for not going to a jury summons…
While in Rite Aid, we are literally counting all the CASH and told the attendant of the crisis and she didn't alert us of possible any fraud. If there had been any Fraud Alerts posted in the store or near the prepaid card sections… that would have been helpful… also if she had told us that the card is live when the numbers are shared with anyone and not to share them with strangers, that would have also helped detect the fraud. The CFPB has to make these scams that are using Greendot type financial companies and their Agents (Rite Aid in this case), responsible.

Victim Location 35243 Type of a scam Debt Collections
The call comes from a number with a new york area code. They are posing and calling themselves the "IRS". They will call private cell phones and leave detailed messages stating that there are big charges against you for unpaid taxes. It is threatening in tone and says that local law enforcement in your area will arrest you within the next 24 hours and they have a legal case against you. They demand that you call them within 24 hours time. When I called them and asked the name of their company they said we are the IRS. I said no you aren't as they are located in Washington D.C. I asked them again what the name of the company was and the response was:
"Mother [censored] Enterprises"
I said excuse me that's not a real company. Then again I asked who is this and what is the name of your company?
And he replied again "mother [censored] enterprises"
So awful I hung up the call. I think they are trying to get personal information out of people such as SS# and bank info or trying to get them to send money.

Victim Location 60061 Type of a scam Tax Collection
this company keeps calling me on my cell phone. they say they are from the IRS and I made a tax error and owe $35,000 form the years 2011-2015. I could either go to Washington DC with a lawyer and argue the case or pay them now to get this done with.
Of course I didn't give them any information. I used a fake name and fake zip code. They gave me the person's name, badge number and case number: Frank Jones, badge GS12576, and case DC1928.
I got cut off so I kept calling back, knowing full well that I was being scammed and just kept giving them false information and not giving them the information they needed. So, they got frustrated and kept hanging up. I kept calling them back anyway. About 7 times. I had a wonderful time having them get frustrated. Ah, the joys of scamming the scammers.
