This is a scam! My house land line received 4 calls today (April 7) from 347-480-1721. For two of the calls, the caller id was just the number, while for the other 2 calls, the caller ID was S RICHMND HLNY.
All of the calls were the same recording as described above: foreign accent, telling my about my name in a lawsuit and the IRS, mentioning the county court house, never addressing me by name, asking me to call back. I had heard about this scam on TV, the biggest giveaway is that Connecticut (where I live) has no county government and there is no specific "county courthouse" just local district courts.
I'll report these calls to the State of CT Attorney General's Office tomorrow, maybe they can do something.
