Oh no, a call from the IRS
Yes, this morning Officer Brown of the IRS called to tell me I was the subject concerning fraud, I had committed fraud in my returns. Of course it was a recording so I would have to call their number NOW.
Since my wife sent IRS a check for $130k after we did our taxes a year ago I have a hard time believing I have defrauded anyone but I guess I should send them more money. |

Ignore it. It is a scam. The IRS does not make phone calls to notify taxpayers of an unpaid liability.

We got one of those calls and I was bored at the time. I called back and they kept hanging up. They finally answered and kept asking what phone number received the call from them. I told them I had no idea, I have a bunch of google phone numbers and burner cell phones, but I wanted to be sure to get it straightened out. They then asked what business I was in and I told them I ran whores, drugs and rolling poker games. Everything was illegal and a cash business but I knew Al Capone only went to prison for tax issues and I did not want to go to prison, I had too many 16 year old whores that need my pimping ability, and the contract killers were keeping the cops off my case.
They said they would make a note to not call me anymore. Dang it. ![]()

I called them back, told them I would have the FBI get in touch with them, then filed a complaint.

Obviously a ploy to get the weak minded, elderly, and uninformed scared into sending them a cashier's cheque.

It's not a scam, but I can help! If you send me the 130k balance I will negotiate a settlement with the IRS for you.

I had the BS call from some guy claiming he was a county sheriff's deputy I had missed a jury duty call and they had a warrant for my arrest. He wanted me to go to Walgreen's and get a $200 gift card and read him the number. REALLY!
I told him to bring a full swat team and a the heavy armor, I had a Ma Duce pointed at the entrance and I was ready. They never did show up.

A parent I do volunteer work with told me her Dad got a call like this and was ready to send the money. He called her while we were working and I overheard part of the call. As she was on the phone I was frantically waving my hands and shaking my head that he shouldn't do it. After she ended the call I told her they need to contact the local police office.
At least it's not creepy clowns calling you. or maybe it is.....oooohhhhweeeeoooooohhhh
