Robocalls: Government Scam Calls

Robocalls that pose to be legitimate government agencies but are in reality scams are labeled as "government scams". There are various types of government scams, with the IRS being impersonated being the most common. This is where a robocall is made pretending to be an IRS employee trying to trick you into believing that you committed tax fraud or owe the IRS taxes. Oftentimes, these scams can be very convincing, as they will have access to your personal information about you, such as your address and even your social security number. Other common government agencies that are used in these calls are the Social Security Administration, Medicare, or local law enforcement. All of these government scam robocalls are illegal, and you should never wire anyone money based off of threats made in a phone call. The best practice to avoid getting scammed is to call the government agency the caller is claiming to be apart of, and asking them to confirm you are truly talking to one of their employees. You can also ask them if they are needing you to pay tax or answer questions related to a crime the caller is talking about. If the real government agency says you are talking to a scammer, you should hang up and block the number.

Just tried to pull this garbage with my elderly father, claiming to be from AT&T wanting him to make a payment to avoid suspension. My father doesn't have an account. I take care of his bills. HUGE SCAM HANG UP. I hate lazy people who try to scam anyone but especially elderly people on a fixed income.

Called and left a partial voicemail saying "Dear AT&T customer your account has been suspended for verification to reactivate your account "
I know my account is in good standing so I knew it was a scam. Idiots

Jerkoffs called after 1pm I didn't feel like answering the phone even though it was a 1-800 number. But, as usual no message was left. From reading previous comments I'm glad I'd ignored answering it.
