| | | I don't like to answer numbers I don't recognize, but after he called for the third time I decided to pick up. He told me I had been selected to receive a $9000 grant from the federal government as if I'd ever believe that. I told him I didn't believe him, he laughed and I hung up. This number is definitely a scam and I shall go back to my rule to never answer an unknown number. |
| | | Someone left a message in my voice mail stating Daniel Wideman claming to call from the Legal Department of Internal Revenue Service because of a criminal lawsuit with case number PF#### and to call him back as soon I get the message. The voice sounded like a robot or a computer a little bit and a made a threat if I don't contact him the situation would unfold on me. I keep getting phone calls from 1-202-431-4755 two times I answered and a guy with an Indian accent told me he was calling from the federal government from the department of grants. I ended up hanging up because I realized It was more likely a scam. Thank you for posting guys. |
| | | I am so happy that all of you posted this information! My fiancé called me very worried and I called the number back to verify and I instantly knew it was not the IRS and I cursed out the so called "Head of the IRS" and told him that he would get reported. When I googled the number, I was so happy to see that there was information on the number. Additional Thanks to everyone who posted other numbers to watch out for as well. |
| | | Getting stupid calls like this for a long time. First of all the irs will contact you buy mail. second these calls i'm getting now are made by a computer voice. Sounds like my commodor 64. And the all the other ones have a broken up voice. |
| | | Omg I've been receiving calls from this number. Thank God I google it to find out it's a scam |
| | | Detective Wiseman stated it was a IRS investigation. If I didn't call he said a warrant would be issued. |
| | | agents Wiseman & Cavin called about IRS audit from 2010-15 asking for a ridiculous amount of money. Said sent ceritied letter w/sigs. Threatened lawsuit/warrant if not resolved. None of ot was true and have concerns this is not over. |
| | | Just received call from the same 202 769 5271. At first i was scared not knowing if this was a sham or not but once the guy started talking I told him i will take the information you are giving me but i don't understand the reason for this call and he kept trying to say i defrauded the IRS and i owe 5250 I told him you are lying and i'm going to send this number to the proper authorities he hung up. He was trying to get info to verify. Be careful. |
| | | got a voice message said he was with the Irs and his name was Daniel wideman and he had a pending criminal case against me and said I needed to call him back as soon as possible I called back but just keep ringing |
| | | Someone pretending to be the IRS! I am tired of this crap, I get an average of 15-19 calls a day from Scammers...it is ridiculous and sad that these people make a living defrauding innocent people of their time & money! I am going to sue them! |
| | | I got same call and Google it obviously it's a scam. But the real question is why isn't someone doing something about it ? How many people are going to fall victim or this crime before they put a stop to it ? Ridiculous !!!! |
| | | First thing I did was Google this number just to found out its fraud |
| | |
Just got the same call as well
Call came from Washington DC but we seem to all have the same case number |
| | | Same thing referencing a lawsuit number and everything, but when I call back its busy |
| | | I just got a call from some guy from India talking about a IRS lawsuit. His ears should still be ringing after what I told him.
|
| | | same call! SCAM!!!!! |
| | | Got a phone call from this number 202 769 5271 and they told me it was the IRS and that if I didn't call them back or my attorney didn't I would see them in court and be arrested. I assume this is a scam be aware. |
| | | this bogus number called my husband claiming there was a law suit against him. DO NOT respond to this caller. If there is a legitimate law suit against you, you will be notified by mail or served in person. God help these people, they are wrong for what they are doing to innocent people.
|
| | | Scared the hell out of me recording of a mans voice he was from the government saying I had criminal charges against me and I need a lawyer also if I did not respond good luck we can't help you . These people need to be stopped . After reading the posts I know it's bull crap ! |
| | | Same as above. Bunch a BS from some over seas dumbasses. Same case number and all... |
