They are continuously calling my disabled veteran uncle and telling him that he owes back taxes and that he will go to jail if he fails to send money.

Scammer's phone1-206-204-4838 or 1-254-275-4862 CountryUnited States Victim LocationTX 75462, USA Type of a scamTax Collection
I have received 5 calls/voicemails this week from someone identifying themselves as an Officer Don Douglas with the IRS. Voicemails say that I need to contact them about a legal case that has been filed against me, something about tax fraud. That I need to call 1-206-204-4838 or 1-254-275-4862 before this goes to court or I get arrested. The calls show up coming from Washington, yet this Don Douglas has a very foreign accent. I have not returned any of these calls and have attempted to block the numbers from my phone.

Scammer's phone2067082849,7075342303 CountryUnited States Victim LocationTX 75703, USA Type of a scamTax Collection
I received a call from someone called Dennis Craig claiming to be the IRS. When they called they left a voicemail saying I had to call back as a warrant had been issued for my arrest. The funny thing was the number they called from (206-708-2849) was not the number left to call back on. They told me to call back 707-534-2303 which I did.
The person answered and identified himself as Robert Craig but it sounded like the same person. He gave his Federal ID number as 11414 and said that a Sherrif would be at my house in 45 minutes with a warrent. I told him that I was going to call my accountant to verify as I thought it was a scam. He did not want to let me get off the phone and kept telling me "you need to listen to me, you are going to jail".
I hung up and called my accountant who told me that it was most definitely a scam. I called the scam number back to tell them that I knew it was a scam and the same person answered but this time identified as Forrest something or other (I couldn't make him out). I just told him I knew it was a scam and was going to report him to the ScamPulse.com and the authorities then hung up.

Received a phone call this morning on my cell phone from number 347-305-6254, called ID "N.Y."
VERY annoying and VERY abusive call: "Is this ___? My name is Cheryl. I'm from the IRS. Did you know there is an arrest warrant out for you?" Me: "I did not". Her: "Yes, you owe taxes and if you don't pay, we will send the police to arrest you!". I hang up, and they immediately call me back. "This is Cheryl, why did you hang up on me? Do you want me to send the police to arrest you?", Me: "I don't know who you are, and I get this threatening call from a number in NY", her: "I told you my name is Cheryl and I'm from New York office IRS (sic). If you hang up, I'm going to send the police to arrest you". I live in Illinois - I hung up.
They immediately called me back 3 more times, then I blocked the number.
