The guy with heavy accent left a voice mail and this number (888-909-8081), and said I'm under investigation.

I call them (auto call) about 100 times everyday. People start calling them back and annoy the crap out of them.

Yes, the number is a scam. They are looking to get information and money from people.    I work with the government in California, and they claim to be in Washington D.C.  Yet, they could not tell me the time in Washington D.C..  Yet, I called them well after the time was closed on the East Coast.  Here are some tips to deal with these con artists:

1) Never give money to them.  I work with the IRS, and we will not demand money via a prepaid card or wire transfer.  There are IRS documents that process this, and it is NEVER done over the phone.  These documents are sent via regular or e-mail.
2) Never give these jokers any money or credit card info over the phone
3) They often use toll free #'s (like the one above) to make you seem they are from the IRS.  They also use call center noise and false agent badge #'s in their calls.  
4) These buffoons threaten to bully you by threatening jail time, deportation, etc.  if money is not sent.  Tell them to go and pound sand, and say this is not IRS protocol.

Just food for thought.

Same as other people have said.  I have legal action pending from IRS. This is Indian cheaters call using majic jack. They have no knowledge of US law.

here is the call text:
Hi this is Kevin McCoy form the Internal Revenue Service. The reason of my call is to make you about that we have received a legal affidavit a legal case file against your name and your identity is under investigation. There are three Federal charges placed against you for ready second you receive this message. Let me forward you to my chief investigator. who then tells me a warrant id and says this is going to be forwarded to

I got call from him too and he said the same thing, I have committed a federal crime and if I don't settle this then police will be at my doors within 30 mins. I was gonna settle then my dad stopped me. You just loose your senses when they say there is a warrant against your name.

I got a call too. Knowing its fake, i did not want to talk to them and asked them to send me anything in writing.

Report these calls to the real IRS:

Got a call from this number 10 mins. Ago. started saying he is Mike Jackson from IRS and I hung up in 2 mins. Kept callin me repeatedly and again picked up after the 4 th time and said that I am a going to be arrested. I told him to f*** off and has not called me since then.  It was a jamaican accent

Your are absolutely right.. I had same experience few weeks ago but this MF used DC area code and called probably from a call center. Just a wild guess, probably somewhere in Punjab (ambient noise).
I engaged this guy for few sec to which him responded in very made-up american accent. He denied that he is calling from India. He couldn't hold the suspense any longer when I cursing (off course in Hindi).
And.... this time it was him  - the IRS officer W/Gaali in Hindi.
Before this they made multiple attempt on my phone both cell and home, with full name.
Enough to scare you because they got your identity stolen somehow, partially if  not completely.
Same day, I alerted my local police as well.
Its not a rocket science for Police to trace caller's IP using date/time and number with the help of telephone company.
However they hardly seem to be concerned. Its cyber crime.

Anyway.. protect your identity and stay safe.

IRS person - I think he got my info off the public phone directory. I think this is a VOIP line judging by the disturbance. Heavy accent. I think he must be from India/South Asia.
He connected me to an investigating officer who identified as Daniel was going to make a recorded statement with I had to answer without interruption. He will give a chance to ask questions at the end. He warned me the that it was a federally recorded line and will be used in front of a Jury.

The line got disconnected. He called me back and asked me to wait for him at my house. He was going to arrest me within 30 mins.

warrant id:ma/19/2340
case reference number 07/619/4549

That same idiot call me and saying he is an IRS officer that jerk is piece of sh*t making all Indian look bad.

I just received a call from this # saying that he is from the IRS and wants me to speak to Daniel Williams who is the officer in charge with my case. He claimed that there are 3 cases filed against me by the IRS. I questioned what those charges are but he didn't answer. I asked why would he be calling me rather than sending a letter because the IRS would not make a phone call if we owe any money. He said they sent me several letters and I asked where were they sent. He mentioned an old address of mine, so right away I know this was a scam. I told him that since I pay my taxes every year, the IRS should have my correct address and not send me mailing at the wrong address. He hung up on me right at that point. Please ask questions and don't easily be a victim in sending your money to these thieves.

Got a call and voicemail May 6th from the same number stating the same from "Officer Steve Adams." Heavy Indian accent and could hear the same message being left by others in the background. Immediately blocked the number. Scam!

Got the same call today. Thanks for the alert

SAME BS ,I OWE MONEY TO I R S..VOICE LIKE SOME INDIAN GUY ..HE SHOULD GET COUGHT..

I got the call from  888-909-8081  number too. I knew it's a scam. So I said every bad word I can think of it.Never got any call again. And I been calling that number and cursing at them every time I call. I think we all should keep calling them and just keep cursing at them,Just to turn the tables.

I got the same phone call asking for my dad. I went online and came to know that it's a fraud. And boy! I called them back and cursed them so much! In fact, i have never cursed so much in my life!

They also called me and they said that i voilated 3 IRS Law and the Officer will be on my door step to arrest me. But i do have the other options to pay them through Government Certified Green vouchers which is available in Seven Eleven, CVS, Radio shack, Dollar General etc, And they can close the file which will provide the clean cheat to me.
This will not go to the Sheriff office and i don't need to go to court.

They also said that every conversation is recorded and can act against me. Even i was ready to pay. Till i made a payment with the green voucher I need to stay on the phone but that sound little phisy to me and i told i don't have any mony i just have credit card and i need to touch base with my wife to get the Debit card so that i can purchase voucher and provide them the voucher name.

I asked him to provide me 10 to 15 minutes time but they were hesitating finally with no other means they provided that time. Then i discussed with my wife and she scolded that guy and said not my husband you will go to jail if you call this number again and hung the phone.

Got a call from this number 888-909-8081 today while I was working from home. Heavy South Indian accent and introduced himself as Michael Morris. Used the same old line of I owed the IRS in back taxes (my wife tells me he has called previously) and if I had received any calls from the local office.

I actually laughed at him and curiosity got the best of me so I didn't hang up as I usually do and played along. I told him I had gotten 2 calls from the local office telling me that Michael Morris would call me and that Mr. Morris was a piece of S***T. Got to give it to him - he remained unfazed and kept right along confirming if I had received 2 or 3 calls and then he proceeded to tell me he was going to send the cops since I was using abusive language with an IRS office and he can forgive it if I pay up and man did I let lose the best of the worst of Hindi/Urdu curse words...surprisingly he remained calm! (must get this often). It felt good though...this sad example of a man did me a huge psychological favor. I have not been able to curse so openly in years! more so because I no longer know anyone who deserves it in this beautiful country I now call home :)

Mr. Morris (whatever your name is), I'm sure you troll this site and while I ask you to go find a respectable job and stop harassing people more naive than me I do appreciate the fact that you allowed me to curse you out in the way I did...you even allowed me use French and Spanish curse words too because you continued to pretend you didn't understand Hindi. Thank You!

For those of you who find this less amusing (like my wife) - hang up - if the readers of this post all use Verizon's World Plan or have used overseas Calling Cards please speak up since I believe that our numbers are being harvested to these scammers just because we call our countries of origin often.

I agree , this guy is a scammer and harassing people. Do not send him anything. He is a crook from India. He pretend to be IRS and scarring people.

I just received a message from this number and got very upset.  Fortunately my accountant had just verified that I am completely clean and with nothing to worry about but I certainly hope that this does not upset or cause harm to innocent people who might not think to check under this type of site and be relieved of their worries.   Thank all of you for your efforts in reassuring the rest of us who dont immediately identify that this is a scam and get bullied.
God Bless

I just got a call from this number, heavy indian accent. Oddly enough, they did not say they were from the IRS. They said were asking for someone else. I told them they have the wrong number, then he proceeded to go through a long list of names asking me if I'm this person or that person. Then they asked me who I was. I told them my name and they asked.. so you're not Naveen.. NO! they then hung up.

Got calls couple of times & when called back  the guy said it was from IRS.

I have also received a call from this number 40 minutes ago. He claims I'm under investigation on three counts of Identity fraud? I'm not calling him back, but I am calling the actual IRS to report this.

this guy has Indian accent and with first call he started taking legal , How dummy is this guy, I have do not call registry and reporting such fake calls
