I got a piece of mail form a company claiming to be working with primerica ira called "pfs investments" care of primerica shareholder services. It claims that I have had 100 dollars toward my ira, but this has been closed for a number of years (since 2022). I called the number provided in the letter, and it turned out to be levi's...as in the pants company. She told me that this is not the first call she got regarding this, and this is for sure erroneous like I thought it would be.

I got in email from him for the interest in a Internal revenue Service Customer Service Representative position. He stated I need to fill out a form and get a copy of my drivers license to him and then he will sent up a Zoom call with the HR and also administer for a quick Background Check. I thought it was fraud from the way the email was addressed to me asking for my drivers license up front especially without me even being hired yet and the fact that he didn't have a an IRA email and just a personal email bought red flags to me. I did email him back and said I wasn't confrontable providing that information to him unless I had his employee email address. I haven't heard anything back from him. Then I looked it up online to see if maybe other people have gone through this they have.

I responded to a job listing on Indeed for IRS customer service representative. I was emailed asking to fill out a shortlist form and attach a photo of my ID, front and back. And I was supposed to receive an invite for a zoom call with HR. I immediately went online to see if this was a scam and found a few post with the exact names saying they were being scammed

I received a phone message that said they are IRS.G0V and to contact 1(818) 233-8255. I had difficulty understanding what they were saying, but the message was short however. I called it back and it took 4 times to actually be able to talk to a real individual who said they were trying to contact me and that I was a criminal. That was all I could understand because I am hard of hearing. My roommate called back twice and he had trouble understanding what they were say also. But basically my roommate said, "Why are you calling my roommate?" the guy hung up immediately. These people are harassing me and I would them to stop!
