Got 3 calls they left this number.  IRS doesn't make calls like this.   Two individuals left messages, all reading same script.  Both actually said they were IRS agents.  This is BS.  These people need to get tracked down and put in jail.  If I could find out where their office was I'd send the REAL police there to get them but all a number lookup got me was "washington DC" -- though the one guy sounded like he was Indian.

A scam is one thing and bad enough -- but this is worse.  Three calls falsely mentioning possibility of arrest in ONE DAY is an actual *threat* against me and my family.  God help these creeps if i ever find out what their real address is.

Received a vm from what sounded to be a male that had a very heavy Indian accent & broken english. He said that he was from the IRS - and then said, "yes, the real Iternal Review Service'. He then said that I had legal complaints against me and to avoid arrest I needed to call him back at the following ph#: 202-609-7007. Obviously, I didn't call back - but I am concerned to a degree because after saying my last name he also said my last 4 social secuirty #'s correctly ... I'll be keeping an extra eye on transactions, credit reports, etc for a long while now.

Received call today 6-16-14.....caller id came up the 1-800 number for actual IRS but call back number per voicemail was 202-609-7007.  Caller had Indian accent too, claiming to be investigator for IRS and that there was a legal petition against me and I better call back or probably be arrested.  Caller only referred to me by my first name.  I typed in the 202 number into google and this thread showed up, thank you for making these posts, they have definitely been informative and helpful.

Just got a call today, 6/13/2014,  Impersonating a Senior Tax Revenue agent of the name Jack Dawson (leonardo dicaprio Character from the Titanic).  I freaked out for a moment and then called IRS to see if my account was in good standing (It was).  He notified me that I need a criminal lawyer, I owe back taxes, I'm going to jail for 6 months, but he never got to needing my account information or social security.

If you get a call from somebody claiming to be an IRS agent, and their callback number is 202-609-7007 or 202-719-0249 IT IS A SCAM. They mask their Caller ID with the real IRS 800 toll free number.

They likely have the last four digits of your SSN, and may also know your address. They'll tell you that due to a tax audit you owe back taxes, and that the grace period has expired. So you need to settle immediately, or face possible arrest or additional penalties.

Thank you for sharing the link. I just got the call this morning and reported it to the FTC as the link suggested. We had a little fun with him and called him back. When he asked for SSN we said 123456789 then he hung up. We called back again and said his call was traced and authorities are on the way. Haha. I hope these people get caught at some point!

Just got the exact same call, same situation.

Prank Call
Received several calls today from 1-800-829-1040, but the voicemails left say to call back to 202-609-7007. I don't know how they are masking their number as the real IRS's number. This is not the first time I've received these calls. They speak with heavy, hard to understand accents and they are scammers. Told me my personal taxes sometime between 2005-2012 were incorrect and fraudulent. When I asked for specific years, they couldn't answer. They threatened with arrest and criminal charges.

Received a call from 202-609-7007, saying he's from the Internal Revenue Service?s, the IRS, or Tax Fraud department.  He further said, before this goes to the federal clinic house and you get arrested, please call our toll free number at 202-609-7007.  Other call reps in the background making the same type of call. This was reported to the IRS due to the known issue with these fake calls:

Just got a call ourselves threatening we were going to be arrested for tax problems. Very difficult to understand the voice. This seems to be a scam. Never have received anything in the mail from the IRS. Thanks to those who posted here previously.

I listened to my voice mail numerous times but I could only gather some key words due to heavy Indian accent such as IRS, investigation, arrested and the phone number.
I have an asian last name and I think they are targeting people with foreign last lames hoping that they would fall for their phishing scam.

My father received a phone call much like the one J. Allen received. Sounds like a scam. Will forward the # to the police.

Received a call from man with perhaps an Indian accent who claimed to be Tyson Morrow, Senior Tax Revenue Officer of the Washingont DC District Office of the Internal Revenue Service stating that I owed taxes and that if they were not paid I would be arrested.  I told the individual that I believed he was attempting to extort money from me and that I hoped he would soon be arrested. A similar scam was recently attempted against my wife who has a foreign sounding name.  If my caller gets to read this, I hope you enjoy jail! And soon!
