I got the very same call. The guy said I still owe $1200.00 on my taxes from 2009. He tried to make me pay it or part of it over the phone or I would be arrested within 24 hours and go to court. I told him to send me all the information in writing. He finally said for me to get a lawyer and then hung up on me. My first clue something wasn't right is he couldn't hardly speak English... Total SCAM. Bad thing is, many would be scared into paying something.
.. I wanted to add this is the second such call I have received, but the other one was about a month ago from an Oklahoma area code and this one is from Seattle.
Got a call from 206.823.3352 today. The caller made two attempts and left a voicemail, which sounded like a computer generated voice that was half way through saying that if I didn't call back and speak to a federal agent I would have to appear in front of a judge and that this was the final attempt to contact me.
that I need to appear before a magistrate Judge or a grand jury or to speak to a federal agent to resolve something.
Said this was my final call and I would be hearing from a magistrate
