DO NOT PICK UP OR CALL BACK THIS NUMBER. THIS IS A SCAM AND THEY CLAIM TO BE THE IRS. THE IRS DOES NOT COMMUNICATE WITH PEOPLE BY PHONE BUT RATHER BY US MAIL. OUT OF CURIOSITY I CALLED THE NUMBER. THE FIRST TIME IT BEEPED TWICE & DISCONNECTED ME. THE 2ND TIME I CALLED IT WENT INTO AN IDENTIFIED VM AND THE 3RD TIME I CALLED, A MAN WITH AN INDIAN ACCENT ANSWERED & INDICATED THAT HE WAS W/ THE IRS & THAT I OWED MONEY WHICH WAS A LIE. HE WAS READING FROM A SCRIPT AND SPOKE VERY QUICKLY; IT WAS DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND HIM. HE PROCEEDED TO TELL ME THAT MY ONLY OPTION TO PAY SO TO AVOID ANY LEGAL ACTION WAS TO MAKE A PAYMENT AT A LOCAL GROCERY STORE SUCH AS KROGER. HOWEVER, I WOULD HAVE TO PROVIDE MY CELL PHONE # & HE WOULD HAVE TO STAY ON THE LINE W/ ME WHILE I OBTAINED THE MONEY & WENT TO KROGER. WHEN I ASKED TO SPEAK TO HIS MANAGER, ANOTHER MAN W/ AN INDIAN ACCENT GOT ON THE PHONE. WHEN I STATED THAT I HAD NEVER HEARD OF THIS TYPE OF PAYMENT ARRANGEMENT W/ THE IRS, HE HUNG UP.
