It sounds like the same scammer(s), but the number on this was 415-251-9738. At least that is the number that I made out of the garbled message. He claimed his name was Derek Johnson.

You know they are scammers when they talk in a heavy Indian accent and they give you a fake, generic American names like Derek Johnson, Jim Jackson, Steve Smith, John Brown, etc. If they're gonna pretend to be American, they need to lose the retarded Indian accent. It's not fooling anyone.

I just got a call on my LAN line, which has caller ID. The number was blocked and all it said was "Private Number". I answered and some guy with a heavy Indian accent said "Hello. My name is Derek Johnson" from some company I couldn't understand. I immediately said to him "You don't sound like your name is Derek Johnson. You sound like your name is Habib Patel or Apu Nahasapeemapedalahn." Then I just hung up. I know he was some scammer going phishing trying to steal my money and my personal info.

Area code 415 is San Francisco, CA. No one who works for the IRS in Washington DC would be calling from SF.

You would think that if these retards are gonna use fake American names, they would at least try to lose the retarded Indian accent, but they don't lol

Ridiculously horrible accent with nothing sent to the home, just barely understandable message from 415-691-7195 from "Alan Smith"
This message board helped me sleep tonight knowing it was a total scam!! Thanks everyone.
Another giveaway was that he called it the "IRS Department"

They ARE breaking the law, impersonating IRS personnel and engaging in extortion. That policeman didn't know what he is talking about. Go back and ask to speak to his supervisor or go to the local newspapers. The police may not be able to do anything, since the scammers are in India, but at least he can try and not tell you there's no crime! There IS a crime!

Received a call from this person claiming to work for the IRS and threatening to put us in jail for back taxes. Heavy accent could barely understand him. Wanted to settle with cash only within 30 minutes. When I told him this was a prank call he hung up.

NOT SURE WHY THEY ARENT BEING PROSECUTED FOR THIS FINANCIAL SCAM!!!!
| Donna 2013-12-14 18:40:09 Unknown |
This call comes at least 10 times per day. When I answer, a sound like recording and noone speaks. Call yesterday finally left a message--a very foreign sounding to point of not being able to understand every word. Said i need you. if you get this message call me. I had a friend call the number and he told her it was about an investigation. This has to be a scam! How dumb do they think we are!!???
Also, for information to those who are getting calls, the IRS always sends notice by U.S. mail, NOT a phone call!!

Received two messages from this number from someone who sounded Indian claiming he us from IRS and I have delinquent tax issues. Asking me to call back immediately. It is clearly a fraud as I do not have tax issues and when calling the number it does not even ring.
| Bulldog 2013-12-12 16:44:33 Unknown |

Thank you for the links. I reported this scammer to everywhere I could think of!
| ANONYMOUS 2013-12-11 20:38:45 Unknown |
Just had this guy leave a message for me to call him. Called back. Was told his name was Officer Anderson with the Office of Investigations with the IRS. I would be getting an arrest warrant served on my from my local police due to not paying back taxes. Wouldn't answer any questions when I asked. VERY heavy Indian Accent. Asked for another officer who could speak better/ clearer english and he told me I couldn't speak English and he would have the arrest warrant there in 30 minutes. I am calling police in my local area now. Please be aware! This scared the s$$$ out of me!
| ANONYMOUS 2013-12-11 20:27:46 Unknown |
I received a call from this phone number. Foreign accent Officer Anderson with the Office of Investigations for IRS. Stated that I owed back taxes and that there is an arrest warrant going to be served on me. I hope it is a scam because I have my husband on his way home. I am in tears!

Received two messages from this number. Very heavy accent, sounds Middle Eastern and is asking that I or my attorney return the call immediately otherwise they will take legal action due to a deficiency in my income taxes. Did not call the number because I googled it and saw this posting. The IRS would never make a phone call with such serious matters!!!!
| savannahga 2013-12-10 02:21:25 Debt Collector |
Called twice, back to back. Message Left on Voice Mail: A man with a strong, unclear, foreign accent stated his name is "Jack Langston from the IRS, Internal Revenue Service Department...number to his division is 415-691-7195. Stated this is a time sensitive message, don't try to disregard this message, call as soon as possible before an illegal allegation takes place".
| Lightship Restaurant 2013-12-09 21:57:49 Debt Collector |
two different people, both with heavy middle-eastern accents, claimed to be calling from the IRS. The call is to a gentleman who lost the business to the IRS in 2008. Left messages for this person to call back immediately regarding back taxes owed.

The second message was exactly the same as the first... and of note he had the first name of my husband wrong but had the right last name though he mangled the pronunciation badly.
