A man from India, claiming to be an IRS representative, demanded that I immediately send $5000 or face arrest
IRS impersonation scam—don’t fall for it!
Summary — +16697583217
Expert Opinion
A caller claiming to be from the IRS demanded $5,000 and threatened arrest, a classic IRS scam. The voice sounded overseas, which aligns with reports of fraud rings operating from India. Never provide personal or financial information to unsolicited callers, especially when pressured to act quickly. Hang up, block the number, and report the incident to the FTC or your local consumer protection agency. Verify any tax‑related issues directly with the official IRS website or by calling their official number. Consider adding the number to a spam‑call filter and inform friends and family about this type of money‑transfer scam to reduce exposure.
