My husband received a call while he was at work from a gentleman at a 1(800)# stating he worked for the IRS. He proceeded to tell my husband that he had committed some type of fraud on his taxes & now owed $4000 back. He actually told my husband that he needed to make a payment at the moment. My husband then hung up. Then the gentleman called again from a different # saying my husband could lose his job & that he was responsible for his taxes even if he had someone else do them. Being my husband was at work he hung up again. Again the gentleman called again from another #. My husband then asked to speak to a supervisor or manager. He was transferred to another gentleman. Best he had an Arabic accent, my husband couldn't understand him well. But they refused to answer his questions. My husband became aggitated & hung up again. My husband then called me asking me to call 1(800) back to verify if it was real. I informed him that the IRS would never call to collect any info or payments. I called the # & was prompted to answer a survey to win a trip to the Caribbean so I hung up & decided to make this report.

received a call on my home phone and was told we need to overnight money to avoid being audited by the IRS. I dialed *69 and got a mobile AT&T phone number. 720-275-4804. I hung up on the caller.

Received a call from the IRS saying my tax returns from 2009-2014 were reviewed and I owed $5,000. If I did not pay they would take me court.

- Woodbridge, VA, USA

Scammer called my personal cellphone number using the number 347-349-7212 and left me a voicemail claiming that I have a pending investigation which is unclear and unknown to me. The scammer claims to be calling from IRS. Not sure what it's all about but it made me laugh.

My husband is extremely worried about a phone call he received from someone stating that there is something wrong with our taxes. He can't remember exactly what was said, but I retrieved the number from the phone. It is 765-508-1547. Thanks.

- Charlotte, NC, USA

Received a recorded call from IRS stating that a lawsuit was being filed due to non-payment of taxes.

- Dickinson, ND, USA

claiming they are IRS. phn# 502-758-1576 out of La Grange, KY. They call and leave an automated message to call because the IRS is filling a lawsuit against me. When you call they want your name and address then make accusations I didn't file taxes correctly and am being audited and will be arrested to serve time in a federal prison and the local authorities will be at my house etc etc.... I hung up before they asked for any further information from me. The phone calls started this morning at 9:25 then at 11:30 and again at 2:15 at this point its harassment.

Thank you for your time.

I am getting phone calls which are recorded messages which say they are from the IRS and we have been turned in for prosecution and we need to call them right away.

- One number came up on my phone as a SKYPE 1-347-494-1912. This was two days after taxes were due, which I did file.

- I just received another call that did not have a number show up on my phone, but the number was 1-347-637-6194.

I tried to do a reverse search and found the most recent caller's number was a land line from the Bronx, Coretel in NY, although another website said it was a cell phone. One of the reverse phone sites I looked at had a section where people could leave a note stating what was happening and there were so many that were IRS scams from different NY numbers. They weren't the 347 area codes necessarily, many were 340. The people who talked to the scammers are told to go get a type of payment card that evidently can't be traced.

I'm familiar with this because I was the victim of another scam where someone called and said she was my granddaughter and was in jail in NY and needed my help. She supposedly had gone to a funeral and was driving someone's car back to the house where she was staying, they were pulled over and one of the kids had pot. They were all put in jail. I have 4 granddaughters in college. They had me guess which granddaughter I thought it was. She had me speak to her attorney who told me what kind of payment card to get to help her with bail. Fortunately a clerk I spoke with at RiteAid told me what was going on; so I didn't follow through. The young lady at RiteAid told me that the majority of the scams where they want this type of payment card, which can't be traced, so you're just out the money, comes from New York. I would have lost $3,000.00. I haven't had any problem with this again, this was just an aside as how these payment cards work. They tell you which drugstores or grocery stores to go to to get them. RiteAid quit carrying them.

Thinking back, this is about the 4th or 5th time I have had a phone call supposedly from the IRS. I have never called anyone back. My husband and I are Senior Citizens.

- Brick, NJ, USA

Phone number 760-587-3906 calls with an automated message saying they are the IRS and that they have been trying to reach you because you are being investigated and to call back. When you call back it sounds like a call center, I did not get far with the person. I asked them if it was a scam and the guy cursed me off.

They called and said they were the IRS and that I would be arrested if I didn't pay them over $4000.

Person calls and claims they are from the IRS stating that they are suing you. When you ask for more information or refuse to give them your personal information they hang up on you.

I was given the name of Officer Jack Williams, badge #IRM2512

A phone call from 715-690-5355 was received on Friday April 29, 2016 at aproximately 8:45 am and another one from this same number and to my same phone at 10:11 am. There was a automated message stating I would be sued by the IRS

claims to be from IRS and are filing a lawsuit and should call back at their office number 302-333-4363

Received two exact phone messages 4 1/2 hours apart on 04/25/2016 claiming it was the IRS. It was a recorded female voice, telling me I was being sued by the IRS. She did not identify the subject of the lawsuit. My caller ID indicated it was a "wireless call," and the number was 607-293-0298, and that was also the number I was instructed to call. I did not call.

Thank you.
