It’s the IRS calling…or is it?

I couldn't agree more. How nice that the FTC can get the same calls and have a right good chuckle over it. phew. It makes zero sense that the FTC doesn't prosecute these nationwide scams. How hard can it be to call - 509-207-5816 - (a number used in the IRS scam) and play along. Feeding them information that can be tracked. Must be like the local police that can't catch the drug pusher standing on the corner, a corner everyone knows, a person everyone knows, selling drugs that everyone knows. Can't arrest him? Why not? Not in the budget. Thats right, no return on cost. Police can fine a thousand citizens a day for going 5+ mph over the limit, but can't arrest the known drug pusher, NOT IN THE BUDGET? Is this why the FTC can't arrest obvious con artists that are ripping off Americans EVERY day?

I HAVE BEEN RECEIVING PHONE CALLS FROM 360-807-5520 SAYING THEIR THE IRS AND I OWN THEM MONEY AND THEY ARE GOING TO ARREST ME... I HAVE REPORTED THIS NUMBER TO BROWARD COUNTY SHERIFF DEPT. AND IRS. THEIR FULL OF S--T I HOPE THEY GET CAUGHT!!

They have called me on 4 different occasions, just this year. And leaving a message on a few occasions, threatening ones, saying they have a warrant for my arrest, but are giving me the opportunity to call them back first. My phone carrier's caller ID doesn't spell out my last name and spelt my first name incorrect, so when they call, they try and pronounce my first name only. I like to play with them. I let them go through all their verbage, then ask them to verify my last name. haha! Some get really made and call me names then tell me the cops are on their way. I tell them I've got coffee brewing and breakfast waiting for them, lol. I also, had another call from someone who told me I won a trip. I verified a few non personal things, then after she went through the entire speech, I said I wanst interested. Boy did she get made. She was yelling at me, asking me why I let her go through all that. I just told her she really needs to work a bit harder to rip people off. That will teach them. Just don't give your personal info. out. And a company named Global support solutions called. Said they are windows Tech dept. I said Im on lunch break and have to call back, they gave me a number of 800-448-1840. I will call them back and really have fun with them too, and wont turn on my computer. My brother had someone from a computer scam call him, and when he deeply questioned them, they said something, I cannot even say here. It was discusting and they hung up.

Calls from 214-717-5061 saying they were the IRS and either myself (no ne used) or my lawyer needed to call them back. Heavy foreign accent and closed with have a blessed day.

I'm glad to see some of these comments, but I'm still flipping out right now. On March 13 I missed a call on one of my cell phones. It was from a no caller ID. The message was a mechanical sounding females voice recording, not a live person, saying that they are IRS Officer Nikki Johnson 818-660-4959. This is extremely time sensitive matter, don't disregard this message before we take any action against you. Of course I was nervous, a couple people said it's a scam. I never thought anything of it again. Then about three weeks ago on my other cell phone, I got the exact same message. Neither time did they address me by name. The recording had already started when my recorder had picked up, so It was in the middle of this IRS message when the real message started. My counselor had an Attorney call the number and was told that I am being investigated for Identity Theft. I have not received any type of letter in the mail. Has anyone else had this exact issue. I'm really scared.
