This is absolutely NOT a scam. I filed my taxes with H&R Block last week. I got a call today from this number and ignored, they left a voicemail saying it was H&R Block. I called the number back and they didn't ask for any personal information. They asked for a time that they could call me. My OWN TAX PREPARER then called me at that time saying that there was an error and he would fix it. This is a safe number to pick up. Do you really think a telemarketing company would use this same number for going on 4 years now? I just wish H&R Block would put the phone number on its own site so people knew what to expect. I live in Houston btw in case this is a regional or state thing.
Ditto here, I received a call today telling me they were from H&R block, the IRS rejected my return? I called my HR block rep immediately no problems, this is a total SCAM!!!
They said that they were from H & R Block. "The IRS rejected my return." They asked if I did my own return. I said, "Yes" & asked for the rejection code which wasn't given. Can they do anything with that information? How did they get my number?
Called saying this was Luis from H&R Block, and had my tax preparer's name. Said my filing was rejected by IRS. Let him know that I already have taken care of the matter, and if there was anything further. The guy said no, same thing. Did call my preparer, and they said that sometimes people from their call center will do follow up calls if there are issues.
I received the same call today. They left a voice mail about my IRS tax return status. Since I had been in the H&R Block office last week, I didn't question the call. When I called 877-443-0949, I was told the IRS rejected my filing. I told the woman I hadn't yet filed. She said she would have a rep call me back because it was possible someone was using my SSN. I said no thanks and that I would call my local H&R Block. It's a scam. Be careful!
