Received a phone call at 8:18AM on 07/18 from 877-652-6456 said there was an error in my IRS tax information and to call back right away. I did not call back.

Got a call twice yesterday from 936-333-4382. Google says it's located in TX. Message says they are aware that a case against me has been filed by the IRS. I know it's a scam, but I called them just to hassle them. A male voice answered, and it had a foreign accent. He said he was in WDC. I can't believe anyone would believe a telephone call about an IRS issue. I never gave him a chance to find out what he wanted from me.

Man with Indian accent calls himself "Steve Martin" executing an inforcement action by the US Treasury. Refusing to call back is an effort to avoid prosecution for a federal criminal offense.

Person calls claiming to be from Microsoft or Dell or System Mechanics. States your drivers are not up to date or your emails has been hacked or there is a problem with MS Windows and bit will only take a few minutes to fix. Once they gain entry to your computer they change or add a Windows password and hold your computer hostage then tell you you need to pay $400 for security update. Now they have access they keep calling constantly even IF you pay like some elderly persons I know that did. And ask for more. This time $3600!!! I immediately called them back and asked them not to call again as they have called 17 times today. Well this morning....5 calls to them already by lunch time!!!!!preys on the elderly and disabled.

Using my computer, checking email, late night 7-5-16, about to log off when a popup alert filled the screen, warning me of a breach. There were 2 error codes. A smaller popup appeared which warned me not to shut down my computer or my files could be damaged or lost, and/or my computer could be damaged. There was a number to call for help: 855-309-0298. I was too drowsy to call last night, so I turned down the volume on my speakers (loud buzzing/popping accompanied message) and went to bed. It wasn't until tonight (7-6-16) that I took the time to call, knowing I would likely need to allow at least 30 minutes for a tech call. After almost an hour of messing around with odd directives, he decided I needed a "Level 7" tech, but they would charge me $100. I told him I would just have to do without a computer and hung up. In retrospect, I do not remember how he answered the phone, if there was a company name or just "IT department."

I received a letter in the mail saying welcome home. My husband and I just moved. It says that they have been unable to contact me and to contact them in the next 7 days and that they have a "parcel." They list their hours and to call today and contact Marilyn. The phone number listed was 913-768-0848 and the parcel number is 701 397. The envelope does not have a return address nor a business name. I googled the number and the first link that came up was a blog with many comment about it possibly being a scam and that it has been going on since 2010. There were a few comments from Kansas with the same story. Some asked if they were recognized from the ScamPulse.com and they said we won't bother you anymore.

I was selling a desk on craigslist. A few hours after I activated it, I get a text from 917-725-7305. I provide my address so he can send a check. A few days later, I received the check for around 3,900 dollars (desk was only for 200 dollars). The envelope came from California, but the check was from Florida. After I texted the person I had received the check, he contacted me, but I did not connect the number with the text until I hung up on him. He was foreign, and very difficult to understand. The following day, he texted, wanting me go to go the closest Bank of America (July 2, 2016). I asked him about the moving company that he wanted to go through, but he never gave a straight answer, so I told him that the deal is off. I gave the check to my mother who works for a bank, but the check can be retrieved if it is needed.

Had 2 different robo calls that left threating voice mails.

First one told me I had Federal Warrants issued and I was going to be picked up by the local sheriff if I did not respond in the next 2 hours.

The second one told me that the IRS was taking me to court and I need to call the IRS service center at a phone number. Another scam.

The IRS sends notices in the mail.

I received an automated message June 25 & 27 saying we had a lawsuit filed against us and unless we called they would freeze our social security number. I did not return the call but the caller ID said it came from Washington DC and I'm afraid many elderly people will call them back.

I received a telephone call from an unidentified female who possessed a very thick Latin American accent (possibly Mexican) on 28 June 2016 at about 4:55 PM (Western Time Zone). She claimed that I was randomly chosen by her organization to receive a $100 gift card because I had allegedly visited one of her employer's client's websites. She refused to tell me the name of the purported website. After saying that I could use the card at Walgreen's, Safeway, and some other businesses, I said to her: "I'm aware that a phone scam run by Mexican criminal groups does the same thing you're possibly doing. Are you trying to steal my credit card information? she said she was not and immediately pressed me to give her my card details. I asked her if she was calling from Mexico or if she was Mexican. she said that she was a Fillipina who'd recently arrived in the United States. I've worked with and have been friends with about 70 or so individuals from Cebu City, Manila, Mindanao and other areas of the Philippines. Her accent was definitely not that of a Fillipina; it was that of a Latina. She said that I had to give her my credit card details to get the card since shipping costs of the alleged card weren't covered in the (phony) deal, etc. I refused and said that I'd like to talk with her supervisor. She then ended the call.

I just received another call from this gang. Please end their activities at once. You may contact me any time between 8 AM and 10 PM (Western Time Zone).

Thank you.

I missed a call from the above phone number. When I listened to a voice message left by them it said that "this is a second attempt to contact me regarding impending legal action by a federal grand jury. If I do not call them back, the legal action will proceed and good luck". I called the number back three times and asked the person who answered "what company do you work for" and all three times they hung up on me. I called back a fourth time and a different person answered, all have foreign accents, and he said he worked for "the US justice department". I then asked him his name and he returned the question and said " no, what's your name?" I responded by saying, "if you really worked for the U.S. justice dept, you should be able to tell me your name", at which time he hung up on me. This is clearly a scam of some sort. I did not provide them any personal information but they were clearly trying to gain info. Please look into this phone number. Thank you

Wanted me to go to a western union and wire $160 (IRS fee) in order to claim a $950,000 prize that I supposedly won randomly from the preferred shopper programs at stores like Walgreens, Walmart, Kmart, etc. He gave a name of Bobby. Spoke VERY broken english. Caller ID said Kingston, JA. Gave me a bunch of bogus numbers to make me think it was legitimate. And told me that the call was 100% legitimate, even being monitored by the FBI and IRS.

I have been receiving calls from an unknown number for the past couple of days. Finally, I picked up the phone and it was a man with an accent explaining that I had been chosen due to me not having a criminal record and being a good citizen for a government grant from the Federal Business Bureau. I was going to be able to get granted $9,000 once I called another number and received a verification code to go to Western Union and give $290, which I would get instantly back after 15 minutes. I repeatedly told the caller that I believed this was a scam and wanted no part of it. I asked for my number to be taken off of their phone list and it was not because they called me again. I questioned and questioned them to where they were getting aggravated and making it sound like it was stupid for not understanding. I asked why I was just hearing about this now and why there was no paper trail. I had not received anything in the mail that proved to have some sort of legitimacy. I did not give them any kind of information and am expecting them to call back tomorrow, to where I am going to give them a very strong piece of my mind.

Please note: I do not have any contact information for the company, as the agent I spoke to refused to provide it. All I have is the number I received a call from.

I received a call from 207-291-1091, which was an automated message asking if I was interested in a lower credit card rate, and to press "1" to connect to an operator. I typically do talk to an operator so I can be removed from the mailing list.

The person who answered (did not provide a name) and asked if I was interested in finishing steps to reduce my credit card interest rate. I asked for the company name, and they said the 'Visa/MasterCard company'. This sounded fake, so I said that I was already working on reduced interest rates with my existing company - *** *** - and asked if that's where they were calling from. The person said no, and I asked to be removed from the mailing list.

The person then immediately became beligerent. He said I was wasting his time and why did I press 1 if I wasn't interested. I said because I wanted to be removed from the mailing list, and the person said he would not take me off the list. I asked to speak to a supervisor, he said he was one. I asked to speak to HIS supervisor, and he said he would not transfer me because I had no manners. I asked him to confirm the name of the company, and instead of providing it, he spelled out "F____ -YOU". I said I would be reporting to the BBB, but since I don't feel I have a true company name, I figured I would start here.

When I call the number back, I get a message that says the call cannot go through.

Someone called my cell# from the 612#- no VM was left, and I did not answer the call, then about 15 minutes later they called a distant relative of mine from the 651#---they did not answer-so they left a threatening VM that I have an URGENT MATTER that they need to be contacted back on to verify documents to be sent???? I have no idea how they got this relative's phone number as it is someone under the age of 18?

I don't know anyone at these #'s, they are indicated as VOIP#'s when I try to look them up online.

So tired of these kinds of calls........ Don't give them any personal information.........
