July 7, 2016, 11:23 pmMy Sister and I have both recieved calls from this outfit. They sound pretty offical and scary, uh? Well, they are bulls**t. Between us, we have 41 years of experience with "The Treasury" and this ain't how the system works. If there is something wrong, you should have gotten stuff in the mail. If you owe them money, you will be told. If they owe you money, you will get it. The purpose is to administer the tax code and collect money, not waste time and money in court. If there is legal action going on, you are told.
You paycheck and bank accounts may be garnished, or your assets seized, but only as the end result of a process that you are fully informed of. You will be mailed official paperwork, and served legal documents. Of course, you are entitled to representation. Take a few minutes and report these clowns to the Treasury Department Inspector General. Google
search for the phone number or call the IRS customer setvice.

July 12, 2016, 5:02 pmRecorded message that started recording before my phone picked up, so I thought she said "surgery center".... Sounded official and I was curious, so I called back. First, when an actual person answered after the 1st ring, I was suspicious. Then the Indian accent....not to mention the fact thathat the US Treasury wouldn't use a number that wasn't toll free. This number also called my 12 year old daughter. She didn't answer and they didn't leave a message.

July 13, 2016, 11:29 amSounds like a robo call to me. Total scam. "Hi, This message is intended to contact you. This is regarding an enforcement action by US treasury intending your serious attention. "

intending my serious attention...ok scammers, get better at english....

"Ignoring this will be an additional second attempt to avoid initial appearance before magistrate judge or the grand jury for a federal criminal offense, call."

2nd attempt to avoid Initial appearance? So I already avoided my initial appearance with a magistrate? Well then I better look out for the cops to arrest me for Failure to Appear i guess...

"Our number is 585-386-8171. We advise you to cooperate with us and help us to help you. Our number is 585-386-8171. Thank you."

No seriously, help me help you! All I need is your credit card!

July 13, 2016, 10:29 pmCalled on July 13, about 19:00, same message as previously reported. The voice sounded like a voice synthesizer, probably to cover up a terrible accent, based on the poor usage of English. Had me going until I listened to the message a second time.

July 14, 2016, 1:19 pmI ignored this voicemail earlier this week because it's from 'Private number' and then they called today claiming from US Treasury. Exactly the same recording as everyone's above. Too bad for them I tend to Google before taking action but I can see many people will fall to scams that give you this sense of urgency like this.

July 14, 2016, 2:50 pmGot a message from them saying it was an enforcement action by US Treasury, regarding a federal criminal offense. When I call the number back, a man with a heavy accent answered and said. "IRS, this is officer John, how may I help you?"
Pretty sure the IRS has a messaging system that takes a few steps until you actually get a human being.

July 20, 2016, 6:55 pmJuly 20th, 2016 I received a phone call from this number which didn't even show up on my caller ID. The woman's voice on my answering machine was threatening & said something about "This is the 2nd attempt to contact you -{They never gave their name or business or my name..more of a "hey you" }- then went on to say I was going to be prosecuted criminally but the judge magistrate in Federal Court by the Treasury Dept. blah blah blah" ..{I've never even had a moving or standing still violation in 66 years nor any dealings with the law-Straight as an arrow I be} So then when I called back the number she left =585-386-8171, The operator said "you have a reached a phone number that is no longer in service or has been disconnected. Very Strange & first time I ever received a call like this. I prefer obscene phone calls to these kind.

Moron said I owed taxes from 2011-2015 and they are trying to collect it or else someone would show up to my job within 45mins to arrest me for 6months with no bail. She sounded Indian and had an english name Rebecca Johnson - transferred me to John Bradshaw, another Indian. Then I knew it was a total SCAM!! Do not listen to them!!
