Male caller with a computer sounding voice, claiming to have "important time sensitive" information.  Sounded like a scam when he started laughing at the end.  Don't answer these calls.

Did not recognize 607-218-4768 on caller ID so didn't pick up.  Caller with a very heavy accent did leave a lengthy message though, claiming to be Agent David Cooper (ha!) from the "Internal Revenue Service Department" and to call his "hot line number" at 585-310-3285.  He didn't specify what the problem was, only that it was a time sensitive matter and if I or my attorney didn't return his call, "the only thing I can do is to wish you a good luck.  The situation unfolds on you."  Who says these things?!  Call ends with "Thank you.  Have a great day."  This was laughable but impersonating a Federal employee is illegal so I filed a complaint with FTC.gov.  When I checked the IRS.gov website, apparently these IRS phone scams have been going on for a few years.  I just wasn't lucky enough to be contacted by these clowns until today.  So, if you don't recognize the phone number, don't answer it.  And as another contributor, AWY, mentioned, the IRS does not call you, rather, they send mail so don't be fooled.

Received same call from 607-241-2857 identifying himself as Gary Foster with Indian accent. Asked me to call the same number 607-241-2857 to talk to investigator Adam Spencer. Called, didn't reached anyone but voice mail greeting with same Indian accent. Believe it's scam.

Indian accent leaves message and says to call very important IRS?.obviously a scam

Most definitely a scam. He just called again and this time started hitting on me over the phone. He asked for my name and number. I hung up on him before I lost my head and temper.

I received the same call from the same number.  The caller has a really thick accent that I cannot really tell the name: maybe xx Smith.  After seeing all the posts, I do believe that this is a scam.  Thanks for all the posts!

It looks like this Indian person changed his name from David Brown to Alex Martin. I got a similar call from a person with Indian accent by the name Alex Martin from IRS.  A scam

I just received a call from a person with an Indian accent, identified himself as a Mr. Alex Martin from IRS. He told me that there is a deficiency in income tax and to call Dexter Cruz, an investigating officer, at 607-218-4768 for details. I asked for his badge number, he gave me 7590493. I called this number, get a  message...cannot complete your call, please try again.
I think this is a scam. He didn't ask for information.

Got the same call from PETER BROWN 1+ hours ago. Said to call back on 6072184768. The Caller-ID was actually 2067082849. I did not bother to call back.

Was called four times from 607-218-4768.  On final call, a barely intelligible person with a heavy Indian accent, informed me that he was agent #0190 James Cook.  He informed me that I owed taxes, was under investigation and had to call Dexter Cruz to sort out my troubles.  He was unable to answer why the IRS was initiating contact via telephone instead of mail and suggested that Officer Cruz would answer all of my questions when I called him at the # provided, which incidentally was the same # he was speaking to me on.  When I asked him why I should call back the same # when he already had me on the phone, he got flustered and hung up.

I just got a voice mail from IRS 607-218-4768. I called back and was told that I owed taxes and I figured out that this was a prank when I asked to pay the due over the phone. Of course I didn't pay but this is really ridiculous

Got the same call from this number, called named himself "David Brown". with strong Africa accent. I did not pick up the phone, so he left the message.  The phone back ground can hear some South Asia accent talking. He even speak my name wrong (LOL), and claimed he is calling from IRS for some allegation. This is a F**King scam.

My mother received a call, claming an income tax issue, and requesting call back to the 4768 number and asking for "Adam Spencer."  My mother has no pending issues with the IRS, and my wife who has professionally prepared individual and small company taxes for 20 years states that the IRS does not initiate issues via phone, ONLY VIA MAIL.

Furthermore, when my mom challenged the caller asking "Are you with the government or is this private?"--the caller refused to answer the question.  My mom asked repeatedly and each time the caller refused to respond.

Therefore, I'm fairly confident that this is a scam.

Today I received a call and the guy said that I have tax issues and need to call IRS agent Adam Spencer at 607-218-4768. the same phone number as the phone # on the above message.  It looks like another scam.......  watch out!

"Michael Brown" has a heavy Indian accent and said to call the IRS 607-218-4768. Reverse phone lookup on this number shows "Bandwidth.com VoIP in Cortland, NY"

I just received a call on that same number saying was a call from IRS telling me that we are not paying taxes...tried to ask the exact name of whom they're trying to call...just said goodbye and hanged up on me because the indian accent person calling probably can't tell me the exact name of the person not paying taxes. I believe it's a scam...don't give any information.

Spoke to the guy with Indian accent looking for someone name Ronald DuVal?  I asked him who is he and he just hang up.  I have no problem with the I.R.S. I retired and used to work for more than 20 years at the State Department of Revenue.  How can we stop these nuisance phone calls?

I got the same phone call messages twice from someone claimed his name is David L(W)ong? I called his number at 607-218-4768 twice but did not get to him, only a woman answered stating this is IRS office and call was off.

Received the same message from Peter Brown. I think it's a scam as well. No IRS agent will end a call with "so goodbye and take care".

A man with a strong Indian accent called me saying he was from the IRS and said we owed a lot of money.

I got a call from a Alex Martin from 607-218-4768. He said there was some tax issue. Government agencies don't call they send mails.

I got a phone call from 607-218-4768 claiming he is IRS David Brown, a person with very heavy Indian accent.  I told me to  call back the IRS investigater, Daxter Crus.  I knew it was a scam since nothing sounded legit.  However, unpleasant to hear the word IRS calling at 7:30 am in the morning.  Watch out for these guys.

My wife got a call this morning from Peter Brown too. Who claimed from IRS but caller ID saids unknown number. He left a number (607) 218-4768 for my wife to call him back. I immediately know this is a scam.

He called for someone who wasn't home but man was that fishy!!

Recieved call from IRS(?) agent saying I had to call an investigator, Dexter Cruz 10am at 607- 218-4768.
I thing this is a scam.

I got a call from a David Brown from  the IRS. I  immediately  knew  it  was a  scammer.  Government  agencies  send   official letters,  not  shady  phone  calls.

I got a phone call from an African accent man at 9:20am  this morning. He claimed that he is calling from IRS, and informed me that I had deficiency on income tax.  I can hardly understand what he is talking about. He asked me to call his supervisor called Dexter cruise at 607-218-4768. When I asked for his name, he told me that his name is Peter Smith.
When I called his supervisor, no body answered the phone call.  The phone number from this Peter Smith is 585-310-3285.
Please be aware of the call from 585-310-3285.

I got a called from this number on Thursday at 8:45 AM. The person with Indian accent identified himself as PETER BROWN and gave me a 60 seconds long message threatening me that the was an issue with my tax. he is calling from IRS, left his phone number 607-218-4768, to call him back, once I called back it went to voice mail nobody picked up.
