Sharon Lawson's profile and activity

I also received a call... My 87 yr old mother was in a panic that I was being sued by the IRS. I called this number back knowing it was most certainly a scam. A woman answered and said she had to look me up and asked for my cell number. I said you didn't call on my cell number and I won't give it to you until I know this is a legitimate call. She said she needed to put me on hold and 20 seconds later dropped the call. Why can't these scammers be immediately shutdown once the phone number is reported? This number originates from Spokane Washington area.
