Scam Alert

Many good folks have received phone calls recently - supposedly from the IRS. Whether they leave a message or the person talks to them on the phone, they tell you that there is a warrant out for your arrest for unpaid taxes, etc. Then they offer to take care of it, but they will need information from you.

Don’t fall for it! The IRS does not contact taxpayers in this manner, and they will not ask for personal information over the phone.

They can be persistent, as evidenced by them calling my 87 year old parents multiple times. When my parents called me and asked me about it I told them to tell the crooks they contacted the FBI which stopped the calls immediately. They subsequently did contact the FBI and the FBI gave them an 800 number to call to report. This is very prevalent and does need to be reported for tracking purposes.
