SCAM. a recording pretending they are the IRS. Threatening message left saying the IRS has filed a lawsuit and to call this number. Funny thing is, I knew it was a scam because it happened to me before. But I press star 67 and called the number and you get a busy signal
Today Feb. 26, 2015, I received this same phone message. "Hello, we have been trying to reach you.This call is from the IRS,Internal Revenue Service. The reason for this call is to inform you the irs is filing a lawsuit against you. To get more information about this case file, please call immediately. our dept # 360-362-4730.
I have a company called StormBusters of Texas, LLC with a call back number of 281-304-0000. This info appears on your caller id as if we were calling you and it leaves the number they want you to call which is 360-362-4730. What they are doing is called Spoofing, We are not making calls for this and we apologize for any problems. I have just filed a report with the FCC, they have basically stolen our name and number for their caller id.
They just did the same thing with the first comment recording.
"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 the IRS is filing lawsuit against you. To get more information about this case file, please call immediately our department number 360-362-4730. I repeat, 360-362-4730."
However, if the IRS tried to contact you, they will never call you and leave you a voice mail saying "the IRS is filing lawsuit against you" When the IRS wants someone, they try to call the individual first, they call from an office in your area code or nearest. Then if the person did not answer, they show up to his/her place within 30 days with badges presented as the IRS.
So do not call the number up there. It is a scam, save your time and money, and register you phone number in the FBI in the Do Not Call List here:

The reason of this call is to inform you the IRS is filing lawsuit against you. To get more information about this case file, please call immediately our department number 360-362-4730.
