Got two calls on my mobile today, including the number 202-368-6353 w/ similar, almost not understandable, messages. I believe the name is similar also. How do we let the US Treasury know this is going on?

I've also received at least 10 calls, repeatedly with no message left, from 5-6 other 202 numbers on my landline.

Left a voice mail claiming that they are from the IRS. They say that if you don't call them back they will take you to court. I work for the IRS, and I know that is not how the IRS operates. Upon an audit, a person is contacted by mail. Besides, they are calling my cell phone, and the number on my taxes is my home number. Thirdly, they don't contact you from DC, it will be a regional office.

Received 3 calls from Dennis Gray from Treasury Dept. about a case pending against me. If I don't call back I will be indicted by a grand jury. I quite sure the Government doesn't work this way plus the # he gave doesn't work!!

I got the same message that other people on this list received. It was a vague threat of taking me to court if I didn't call back.

They state this is a call to enforce a judgement from the US Treasury. Ignoring the call would be viewed as an attempt to defraud the government.

Left a message under UNKNOWN CALLER ID after a barrage of missed calls from 202-448-8494. The message stated it was related to the Federal Treasury. If I didn't respond I would be prosecuted or criminal charges would be held against me. The only way to avoid was by calling them back. SCAM.

A voicemail was left to call this number about IRS, original call was from 870-466-8663 claiming to be IRS. This is a scam saying you owe back taxes and penalties or you will be arrested or have to go to Washington DC in front of a grand jury. Do not give them any personal information

Got call from this number 7/16/2016 threatening legal action if I didn't call back. I could barely understand the message because of the static. I think it has to do with the data stolen from the government last year in the hacking of personnel records of anyone that's gotten a government background check.
