    Anyone else get a phone call with a recorded message saying the IRS is suing you? They left a number to call and it’s not an 800 number. I just don’t believe it’s legit.

    X2. If the IRS ever has a question you will always see snail mail first, not even e mail.

    There was a post about this a while back. We were to call and report the calls to the police.

    They must be getting some cash, ’cause they’re still doing it!

    There is a similar style scam happening to college students I have heard recently. The caller claims to be an officer from the local police department notifying you that you owe XX,XXX dollars due to a “specific” form you did not fill out while applying for Financial Aid, and that if you do not pay there will be a warrant issued for your arrest.

    If you think about it for any longer than 2min, you can see right through the scam, but it definitely had many a few students concerned.

    Was it officer Benjamin Franklin? I got that one last year, got a good laugh from it.

    The first clue was that they said they were going to sue you. They don’t need the court, they’ll just take it by force! coffee
