Received Call from 8445198691, Attempt to extort money by claiming to call from the IRS.
When I called back was greeted by a person who spoke broken English! And I asked him to connect me to a supervisor who turned out to be no better! There was lot of noise around...like in a call center.. you are supposed to believe it is the IRS! Pathetic scam... they wanted money and tried to intimidate me!

The pre-recorded message is a scam. The message is left by automated dialers set up by scammers in India & other foreign locations. The computers are programmed to call thousands of numbers everyday, to leave these threatening messages.
When you call back, you will encounter one of those Indian or other foreign scumbags who speak poor English! Recent immigrants and seniors are their primary target.
(An Indian woman and her boy friend were arrested by Leonia PD for making scam phone calls posing as IRS agents and stealing ~$150,000 from innocent tax payers. More Details: www.scamcallfighters.com/Transcript-of-Ten--IRS-scam--voicemails-submitted-by-users--Did-you-get-one-too--blog-74.html )
The scammers often spoof the telephone number to disguise where they are calling from, and they sometimes manipulate the caller ID information so it seems like the call is coming from the IRS. They may even give out a fake IRS badge number, and may even know the last four digits of a victim’s Social Security number and try to use that information to gain a victim’s trust.
The IRS a will never demand credit or debit card payment over the telephone, nor will the IRS demand that you pay a tax bill in a specific manner.
The IRS will never call anyone “out of the blue” and ask to pay. IRS will send notices through regular mail.
The IRS will always send written notice through the U.S. postal system of any taxes due, and will never ask for credit, debit or prepaid card details by any form of communication
