Victim Location91709 Type of a scamTax Collection
"Officer Richard Williams" says I am the subject of a legal lawsuit for tax evasion and fraud. He claims to be an IRS agent. Said I need to call him immediately to resolve the issue or I will be arrested. I was to call him at 352-464-6034 or face the consequences.
Of course he knows nothing about me when he left the phone message (ie: my name or who he was calling, address, etc) He has left messages over the last couple of months several times.

The local News station(KWTX) reported that there is a scam that someone in the DC area is calling. The IRS does not call directly. This scam states: "We have made several attempts to reach you, this call to offer 'Shirley' from the 'inferno revenue service' This is to inform you that the IRS is filling a law suit against you. an urgent call back is needed by you at 202-536-5775."

I received 3 phone calls from 315-277-9195, stating that they were from the IRS and that they have a law suit against me and I needed to contact them at the above number. I didn't return their call. I just read about this scam in my local newspaper and thought I needed to turn in this number.

I was contacted by phone @ 12:49 pm on 2/25/16 by an automated message that said I owe the IRS money. I called the # back which is(206)204-5554 a man answered and said "Internal Revenue Service, how may I help you? He had a very thick accent, I told him he is NOT the IRS and not to call me again. He then said I owed $5000.00 and he was going to take it from me. I laughed and hung up on him.

phishing email claiming to be the IRS requesting to open a link and provide personal information. Obviously a fraud based on grammer and general concept.

I received a call from someone claiming to be Bryan Snyder with the IRS. He said that he had an arrest warrant out for this address and that I would be arrested. He called from 262-383-3971 but he wanted me to call him back at 352-547-4013. I called the sheriff and he advised me to call the ScamPulse.com because it sounded like a scam.

I've had at least three calls in less than 30 hours from 347-560-5299.
The recorded voice (claiming to be Officer Lauren Matthews of the IRS, but sounding like an automated customer service voice) is vague about whom they're trying to reach. The recording says "The very second you receive this message, contact your lawyer of record..." and orders whomever hears the message to call "her" back at 347-560-5299 immediately or they will take action.
1) The IRS clearly states it NEVER contacts people out of the blue by phone or email;
2) The recording never says who's being called or why;
3) Last time I checked, the IRS wasn't a law enforcement agency with Officers.
They're probably hoping that people will assume there's a problem with their tax return or rebate and will easily cough up their SS# or other personal information.

I received a phone call stating that I owed several thousands of dollars in back taxes. He stated that I was going to go to jail and be fined $90,000 or more in court fees and penalties. He said I had to pay the debt immediately and would wait on the phone for me to get the money. I then told him I needed more time and became more aggressive. He said that they will be at my door and charges have been pressed. I was able to get him to give me a number to call back once I had the money. I then called my tax preparers and they informed me that it's a scam. I was instructed to get payment information. I then called him back and told him I had the money. He said he would instructions through the payment process on the EFT#. I told him no he would not, that I wanted the and I would do it on my own. He then laughed at me and hung up the phone. I then received a call from another one but this one came in from Jamaica. That started another series of issues. In all I received several calls over a period of two days.
