What are Government Scam Calls?

Spam calls or robocalls that are claiming to be from a government agency in order to obtain money or private information are called "government scams". The most common government scam call is where the caller pretends to be a tax collector from the IRS, in which they ask you to send money to a bank account in order to not be arrested. It is important to note that this is not the way the IRS gets money from people who owe taxes or from people who have committed tax fraud, so do not believe these callers. Other agencies that robocalls pose as are the FBI, police departments, the Social Security Administration, and others. When people make these calls and pose as government agencies, they are breaking the law and have poor intentions. The best way to ensure you are not getting scammed is to call the government agency the caller is claiming to be apart of directly, and ask them if you truly are wanted for tax fraud, a crime, etc. The real employee from the organization will be able to confirm if you are speaking to a scammer or not. If you are, you should hang up and block the caller from contacting you again.

Midland Credit- Call received 12/4/19 Identified herself but couldn't understand due to heavy foreign accent. I did not verify who I was so she wouldn't tell me what she was calling about. They are a collection company, trying to collect on a debt already reported as being identity fraud. I receive calls from them 4-5 times a week from different numbers. This was the first time for this number, but since then show 3 unanswered calls from this same number.

These people were trying to collect a debt from someone I know and Iam not a consigner nor authorized to deal with it. And besides, the debt was opened and probably in collections prior to me knowing this person. They are unethical.
