(317) 364-8086 Robo call recorded 15 September 2016 ("IRS official final notice...IRS is filing law suit against you...") SCAM
Caller ID: "Wireless caller"

I was surprised when I answered the phone and heard this early version recording of the IRS law suit scam because it has all the old errors that I thought they corrected some time ago. They even say the name of the IRS wrong!

The call almost sounds professional (except for a subtle grammatical error that somebody with a 6th grade education would probably notice. I don't want to specifically mention the error and rough spots in case these scammers are savvy enough to do Internet research on their own spoofed phone numbers, why give them the benefit of my critique to help them make their patter sound more professional than the horse manure it is?) but we all know these IRS impersonators are foreign scammers calling because of peculiarities in their wording that sounds more like a non native English speaking person.

Anybody with half a brain cell working would probably know immediately that the call is not from the IRS, but then again, there are a lot of gullible people out there answering their telephones, so I guess scammers like these are able to stay in business.

Thanks to Google Voice, following is a transcript of this scam call:

[automated female voice] "Hello. We have been trying to reach you. This call is officially a final notice from IRS, Internal Revenue Services. The reason of this call is to inform you that IRS is filing lawsuit against you. To get more information about this case file, please call immediately on our department number (317) 364-8086. I repeat, (317) 364-8086. Thank you."
