Hint: If you return a call from the IRS and you don't wait 20 minutes at the very least for a real person, it isn't them. :)

Yeah. I think before the IRS would call you they would send some very scary threatening letters.

And if it actually was the IRS, they’d show not a shred of mercy

We got one of those calls. Mr. Mercat wrote down the number and will be reporting it to the local DA.

If it was the actual IRS, they would have said they’d take the baby as a down payment.

This is just a low-tech version of phishing. Another variation is the caller claims to be your bank or credit card company. Bottom line is these entities do not do business this way and never, ever give any financial information to a phone caller.

If they insist, tell them you will hang up and call their office in the phone listings.
