"cops will take you into custody" - IRS scam, don't fall for it
The phone never rang, and the message started in the middle, but the part I did hear is the same nonsense everyone else got. Since when does the IRS refer to local law enforcement as "the local cops." It would be funny if people weren't falling for it.
What's interesting about this is that my phone never rang. A voicemail showed up. The message was a robovoice message telling me that I needed to call the number because I will be taken into custody by the local cops because there are four serious allegations against my name. Funny ... The number comes from a different state than I live in! SIGH.
