        It is about time. 2nd time they called me, I was in one my moods. I wasted so much of their time the guy hung up on me in frustration. My wife had to go to another room to keep them from hearing her laugh. She told me, you should be ashamed of yourself, then roared in laughter.

        I told one of these to call my number to the bank and gave the an extension to dail in. It was the local FBI number and someone's desk. Told them to ask the person to wire transfer money out of my bank account Western Union. He took the information lol

        Someone is still actively doing this same thing. In fact I got the call about 10 days ago and kept the message they left me including the originating phone number.

        That's on the people that were scammed. Even a 10 year old knows the IRS will NEVER contact you by phone.

        I called these clowns back every time they left me a message. They would answere the phone, "this is the irs department" with think Indian accents. I would beg them to kill themselves and asking how they slept at night each time they answered. Jail sounds perfect.
