Man called me 5/22/14 saying I cut him off yesterday in his red Honda Civic. I said I didn't know who he was or what he wanted or how he could have even gotten my number. He said "That's the funny thing. I work at the DMV." I told him I didn't believe anything he said and hung up. Phone number is 951 223 6693.

I do not know who this or these (CREEPS) are but this is harassment before 8 am 2-5-14 and on yesterday 2-4-14. I told that person to mail something in the mail and give a place of address. I just hung up the phone after I told him no one calls before 8 am when trying to conduct business of this sort or type. I received the same type of call regarding my employment being threatened and legal action. I am contacting my State Assemblyman and have the staff investigate these calls. Thanks to the other citizen for putting these websites in the reported messages. I will submit this number.I do know this that if you apply for payday loans on line there are FAKE businesses out there who get your information and that is when they call telling you have been approved for loans up to $10,000. Most of the time I get call telling me I have been approved from GE Capital. I agree with the citizen who states all of the INDIAN sounding people have Euro-American names. The number he (Brian Smith) left a voice mail on was for me to call back on 213-437-6630 and demanded to call him back in 2 hours received this call at 7:41 am Feb. 5 2014.

"Marvin" with a heavy foreign accent has identified himself as an agent for the IRS and stated that they were levying a civil action lawsuit against me and I needed to pay them immediately he said I had to call him back right away. I called "Marvin" and listened to his horrible broken English and and all the things the IRS was going to do. I asked to speak to his supervisor but he said they were busy; then I asked for his IRS agent number and guess what...HE HUNG UP! LOL. They continue to call and I laugh at them and always ask for their IRS agent number knowing that they will hang up immediately. Note to all: The IRS will never call you; they will contact you through the mail and give you a number to call with an identifier number from the letter you were sent.

received phone call today identifying himself as IRS. I couldn't understand him because he sounded like he was in a can and had a very thick foreign accent. I asked for his name and during very brief conversation he gave two different names.
He asked me to identify myself because I was in big trouble with the IRS. I asked him what the IRS was and he said " You don't know what the IRS is? It is the Internal Revenue Service."
I hung up.
He called back and left message on answering machine.
I was actually scared. I am very savvy about scams...but this guy was good.

I just received a voice mail from this number, an Indian sounding man, stating he was calling me from the IRS. First of all, I file jointly with my husband, so I know they would not just be calling for me. Secondly, I have had no written notification from IRS, which I believe is their procedure. Thirdly, I file lawfully, every year, on time. What a bunch of crooks!!

Call from this number 10/29/13 from a man named John Williams with the IRS stated that we owed from last years taxes and had to call asap are they would have to turn us in. I knew he was wrong and when I tried to call the number back, it rang then a long beep all three times I called. I figured it was a gimmick,
| dan 2013-11-02 12:36:52 Unknown |
An indian guy calling himself Justin Smith started calling a few weeks ago, saying he was with the irs. I suspected something when he couldnt give me his badge number, so i challenged who he really was and he hung up. I kept calling back until he answered and swore at me. Same guy called again this morning. This time he was prepared with a badge number. He insisted that he had no information but to tell me i had to call another number to speak to an agent about a tax problem. If i didnt call, then they would meet me at 9:30 to take my drivers license and credit cards. Cant wait for the next call.

From IRS.GOV
WASHINGTON ? The Internal Revenue Service today warned consumers about a sophisticated phone scam targeting taxpayers, including recent immigrants, throughout the country.
Victims are told they owe money to the IRS and it must be paid promptly through a pre-loaded debit card or wire transfer. If the victim refuses to cooperate, they are then threatened with arrest, deportation or suspension of a business or driver?s license. In many cases, the caller becomes hostile and insulting.
?This scam has hit taxpayers in nearly every state in the country. We want to educate taxpayers so they can help protect themselves. Rest assured, we do not and will not ask for credit card numbers over the phone, nor request a pre-paid debit card or wire transfer,? says IRS Acting Commissioner Danny Werfel. ?If someone unexpectedly calls claiming to be from the IRS and threatens police arrest, deportation or license revocation if you don?t pay immediately, that is a sign that it really isn?t the IRS calling.? Werfel noted that the first IRS contact with taxpayers on a tax issue is likely to occur via mail
Other characteristics of this scam include:
Scammers use fake names and IRS badge numbers. They generally use common names and surnames to identify themselves.
Scammers may be able to recite the last four digits of a victim?s Social Security Number.
Scammers spoof the IRS toll-free number on caller ID to make it appear that it?s the IRS calling.
Scammers sometimes send bogus IRS emails to some victims to support their bogus calls.
Victims hear background noise of other calls being conducted to mimic a call site.
After threatening victims with jail time or driver?s license revocation, scammers hang up and others soon call back pretending to be from the local police or DMV, and the caller ID supports their claim.
If you get a phone call from someone claiming to be from the IRS, here?s what you should do:
If you know you owe taxes or you think you might owe taxes, call the IRS at 1.800.829.1040. The IRS employees at that line can help you with a payment issue ? if there really is such an issue.
If you know you don?t owe taxes or have no reason to think that you owe any taxes (for example, you?ve never received a bill or the caller made some bogus threats as described above), then call and report the incident to the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration at 1.800.366.4484.
If you?ve been targeted by this scam, you should also contact the Federal Trade Commission and use their ?FTC Complaint Assistant? at FTC.gov. Please add "IRS Telephone Scam" to the comments of your complaint.
Taxpayers should be aware that there are other unrelated scams (such as a lottery sweepstakes) and solicitations (such as debt relief) that fraudulently claim to be from the IRS.
The IRS encourages taxpayers to be vigilant against phone and email scams that use the IRS as a lure. The IRS does not initiate contact with taxpayers by email to request personal or financial information. This includes any type of electronic communication, such as text messages and social media channels. The IRS also does not ask for PINs, passwords or similar confidential access information for credit card, bank or other financial accounts. Recipients should not open any attachments or click on any links contained in the message. Instead, forward the e-mail to phishing@irs.gov.
More information on how to report phishing scams involving the IRS is available on the genuine IRS website, IRS.gov.
