I just had as much fun as I've ever had with my clothes on.
After returning home from work, I found a message on my answering machine from the IRS! Apparently I'm in danger of having my checking and savings accounts frozen, and then being sent to prison!
Fully aware of the scam, and with a bit of time to kill, I called the number left for me. Much to my surprise, all I had to do was provide my bank routing number, or a credit card payment of $350 dollars, and all of my transgressions would be forgiven.
I was seriously contrite, along the lines of "Oh my goodness, I've always tried to be a responsible citizen", and "I would never intentionally attempt to defraud the IRS!" The gentleman on the other end was extremely solicitous, and assured me that we could make this problem go away. I was able to keep him on the line for about another ten minutes or so as we discussed the most efficient method for me to resolve my problem.
Eventually, I got bored, so I said to the man, "You know, sir, I know how to immediately resolve the issue. You need to eat shit, **** yourself, and die!"
He sputtered for a bit, allowing me to beat him to the hang-up.
I know, simple pleasures for simple minds, but DAMN I enjoyed that!

I think this DUmmie owes $350 to a bill collector and made up this story to cover its ass.

Even better, if the bouncy is in fact true, the thug scammer he screwed with has his phone number, name and probably address. He better hope the scammer isn't the vindictive type.

Bingo.
I got a voicemail today saying it was the IRS and last notice of a lawsuit being filed against me so please call back.
I knew such a call could never happen but if you returned the robo call you just opened yourself up to all kinds of spam that the entities behind this would sell your number to.

*67, then dial the number. It shows up as "restricted". No CLI involved.

Received one of those calls recently. Not in arrears, and looked up the number. Total scam. The IRS sends letters. Through work, spent countless hours speaking to them.
11 Bravo is full of crap, as usual.

On the rare occasions I am feeling frisky I usually tell them Perky is gone and the main suspect in a terrorist attack plot. Please give me your physical location, your IRS ID number and I or the local FBI agent will be coming to your office to interview you. Then I act like I am talking to someone off the phone and say "Trace this number".
Never hear from them again for some reason.

These guys are real (the scammers). I have spent some time screwing with them -- I even got one of them to hang up on me (when I asked how the weather in India was and the name of his High School). That was fun but experts warn these people might retaliate so don't dick with them too much.

The DUmbshit better watch his rear end, if it's true that is. :-)
Couple says IRS scammer called SWAT on them (http://www.wsbtv.com/news/local/cherokee-county/couple-says-irs-scammer-called-swat-on-them/407362161)
CHEROKEE COUNTY, Ga. - A Cherokee County couple says a con artist called SWAT on them when they refused to fall for his scam.
It happened Monday afternoon in Canton.
The victims say the scammer claimed to be with the IRS and demanded $2,600. When they refused, he said he would call police on them.

To be fair, a lot of DUmmies prefer it in the rear end.

And in that case, watching it simply enhances their experience. :gay:

Why do their bouncies always have someone sputtering?

Wowzers! Variants of this phone phishing scam have been around for a couple of years or so and this DU-member just got the idea of messing with them? ::)

It is something they have seen on TV so they assume it happens all the time in real life.

I've had one of those calls twice this summer. They don't get called back. I know the IRS protocols, and they (and we) never use a phone call as the initial contact.
