Scammer's email[email protected] CountryUnited States Victim LocationLA 71263, USA Type of a scamTax Collection
I received a recorded phone message that said it was the last time they would call. They said they were from the IRS and I had a tax refund. Then they needed more information, and I hung up...I received a similar e-mail a short time back that sounded the same. It had forms to fill out, beginning with SS#.

I came home from shopping yesterday and there were two messages on my answering machine. One of them claimed to be the IRS stating that they have filed a lawsuit against me so I called them back and was told that they were going to have me arrested within two hours and told me that if I didn't have a lawyer I should get one. I was frightened because I do owe them some money so I believed them. I panicked and hung up the phone before they said anything else. I called a couple of friends and one of them gave me a phone number to a tax defense organization and was told it was a scam and that the IRS doesn't operate that way. They would have sent me notices via registered mail.

I received a few of those fake IRS calls. I deleted most of them but I thought you might like the numbers. The last one called from 563-667-2515. I'm 69 so maybe they are targeting older people.

I was told the IRS was filing a lawsuit against me for $4,286.00, due to "numerical miscalculations from tax years 2009-2013" and I could ask for a "re-audit" and if it was found that "my tax preparer filed the forms incorrectly the IRS would FORCEFULLY take the money from my tax preparer". I could pay in court and pay attorney fees or pay them up front by credit card. They gave me their tax ID & name for reference and gave me a filing number for my case. They also stated an affidavit was filed in court against me and cited Section 101 of the penal code and told me to do an "OC", Offering Compromise, instead of having to pay court costs, attorney fees, and hefty fines over $10,000.00.
