Type of a scam:Tax Collection
Received a call that left an automated message saying I needed to return the call to the IRS or there would be legal action against me. The call came from 509-570-1780 and showed Washington DC on my caller ID. The number they told me to call was a different number. They called 2 times now this morning. I know this is a scam as the IRS won't call me and I KNOW i don't owe any tax money.
I will report this to TIGTA too!

Received a computer generated message on my voicemail that this was a final warning that the IRS was filing a lawsuit against me and to call 805-509-7366. I know I don't owe anything and have never had prior notice, so it's definitely a scam. I did not call back.

They call from a restricted number. And left voice mail message that a warrant has been already issued for my arrest. Left a phone number called it back. The person told me he was from the IRS and my warrant was do to me not paying taxes in the past 5 years I asked him his name and he told me he was officer Steve Miller .IRm0187,Cp1013t when I told him I wanted to speak to his manager he hung up on me.
Someone with a foreign accent called and said they are an attorney with the IRS and that they were trying to collect on a debt. They got upset and hung up on us when we accused them of being a scam and told them the call was being recorded.

Recording left on VM telling me to call back an IRS agent when I did the only info I gave him was my name. He claimed I owed $500 to them and I needed to sent up a new gmail account to pay it. He would not allow me to go onto the IRS website to verify what he was claiming. He also stated they sent 2 certified notices to my home, which I did not receive. He had an accent and it was difficult to understand him. The connection on the phone was horrible as well. It may have been a cell phone he was using. He kept me on the phone for half an hour and when I called him out on this being a scam he threatened that 3 agents were on their way to my house with an arrest warrant.

I received a call from 347-394-1629 telling me that I needed to return the call immediately regarding an IRS tax collection issue. I called and the person stated his name was Stanis Brown, GS# 41520, DC#1811. He told me that an audit of my taxes had been conducted and that I owed in excess of $4K. Told me that I would be arrested if I didn't pay. Told me I had to either pay the amount before I hung up the phone or face legal and criminal charges.

Telling me that I have a law suit against me from the I.R.S. I call them and when I start asking questions about the problem they disconnect. Then I call back and get a recording that number can not be reached at this time. I'm pretty sure the IRS will not contact me in this manner I think it will be by postal service if they need me.
I received a phone call/vmm from 270-576-7261 (Glasgow, KY), the message went as follows:
The reason of this call is to inform you that the IRS is filing a lawsuit against you. To get more information about this case file, please call immediately 270-576-7261. Thank you.
I knew immediately that it was a scam because this is probably the 10th one I've received but all different telephone numbers. I called the number back and it took the person about 15 rings to pick up and then he was foreign and I'm almost 100% positive he was overseas. I specifically told him to take me off of his list and that I'm turning him in to as many federal agencies as I could and then I hung up.
Person indicates a pending law suit based on non-payment of back US taxes. Could not tell if real person or recorded auto-dial call. Was too short to figure out.
Recorded message that states I owe the IRS and a lawsuit is being brought against me.

I had two calls claiming to be the IRS which left me an automated message claiming that they were opening an official case against me after a number of attempts which I never received prior to these messages. Another red flag was both messages were automated. I did attempt to call the first number back prior to the second message and an individual answered that was less than helpful; requesting information (name and address) from me before even giving me any information. I had to ask for his name, he did not speak english well, and I ended up hanging up on him before giving him my social.
