I received a call from the IRS today saying there was a lawsuit being filed against me and to call back this phone number for further details. 832-895-3481. It sounds rather fishy

received a call from 206 708 2849 this morning with a recorded male voice instructing me to call 206 201 0042 because the IRS was proceeding with a law suit against me due to the nonpayment of taxes. I know that It is a scam because the IRS does not call people. Just figured that I would report this.
I never called the other number to proceed any further or to investigate.

IRS impostor, indicating I was in violation of several IRS breaches, filing a fraudulent tax return, violation of IRS act, and tax evasion. Did not allow me to ask questions, was very belligerent, multiple threats of a warrant for my arrest. When I asked questions, he accused me of being rude, that he didn't care if _they_ were being rude, he was just doing his job, he didn't care about me, I was just a number. Then he advised that if I spoke more than yes or no, recorded the call, had any conversation with 3rd party during this call or had any background noise, he would immediately terminate the call and issue a warrant for my arrest. Said I had committed treason, that Homeland security is involved. When I answered his questions, he said he didn't believe me and thought I was being distrustful, that I was trying to dodge taxes. He cited two mailings to my address, the second saying that I had 30 days to respond. Since I didn't this was only a courtesy call to advise me they were sending sheriff to handcuff me and drag me to jail for three days, until I had my courthouse trial. He said that since I had a clean record, and although he was surprised I was trying to evade arrest, he could transfer me to a Sr. Case Manager who might have a *might* have time-sensitive alternative. Transferred me, and she began asking the same questions. I advised that I was hanging up, and terminated the call.

We received a call from the someone who said his name was officer Jeff ( I don't recall his last name ). He said he was with the IRS. We had received a similar call last spring for the same thing. We contacted the BBB last time too so we new it was a scam. We hung up on him. The number that showed on our phone was 352-547-4013.

Very convincing call from an actual IRS general number in Buffalo. 716-200-5100 with a call back to 716-200-4980. Indian/Pakistani accents. Very threatening. Threatened my with impending arrest for tax evasion. Read an alleged affidavit that basically said I had broken just about every tax law.
Just received a recorded call stating IRS issued a warrant against me and that I was under federal investigation.
when I called 206-900-8855 a man with an Indian accent named Eric Stonehart id #4088224 answered.
They give the IRS address 801 Tom Martin Drive, Birmingham AL - The IRS WILL NEVER CALL YOU. They will contact you via official mail service.

On Tuesday, February 9, 2016, an automated message was left on my home telephone in a woman's voice saying that they were calling from the IRS in Washington and that this was our last opportunity to take care of our tax debt. Later on that day, when my adult daughter arrived home, another call came in. She answered and spoke with a man who spoke with a very heavy Indian accent. He told her that she owed over $4,000 for back taxes and that she had filed fraudulent tax returns and was trying to defraud the government. She told him that she needed to speak with me and he told her that she could not speak with anyone and if she did they would be a party to the matter. He further told her that if she failed to pay the $4,000, they would be sending the police to arrest her. She called me at work from her cell phone and told me what had occurred. She was very upset and worried that she was in trouble with the IRS. She provided his telephone number to me and I said I would call to speak with the man. I called the number and I also was informed that I over over $4,000 to the IRS and had filed fraudulent tax return and was trying to defraud the government. I put him on hold and asked a colleague who is a part time tax preparer if the IRS places threatening phone calls to demand payment of money owed to them. She assured me that the IRS send correspondence and doesn't make phone calls or threats to tax payers and that it must be a scam. She advised me to contact the IRS myself which I did and was reassured by the IRS Representative that I owed no taxes and that the phone call was an attempt to scam me and my daughter. The man that I spoke with who was impersonating the IRS spoke with a very heavy accent and also threatened me with police arrest if I did not make a payment immediately. I did report the incident on the TIGTA website. Last week, we received yet another message on our answering machine claiming to be from the IRS in Washington. The call back telephone number that was left on the answering machine was (206) 451-9513.

The caller called and stated that he was Officer Edward Fitch with the IRS with the ID: IRM529700 - and he was calling because the IRS had filed a lawsuit against me. Stated that my taxes had been audited from 2008 to 2013 and found that I falsely reported earnings and owed $2400. He ask me if I wanted to handle in court or out of court because there was a warrant out for my arrest. I told him out of court and that's when he transferred me to someone else who stated I couldn't tell anyone about the call until after I received court documents. He said I needed to pay $500 up front then they would put the rest on a payment plan. I kept questioning him until he finally hung up the phone...
