A recorded message claimed to be regarding tax debt and a federal economic recovery program, but the authenticity is uncertain
How to spot fake tax recovery calls?
Summary — +18669791204
Expert Opinion
Never return a call that claims instant tax relief from an unknown number. Those automated messages typically mention a "economic recovery program" or promise to erase past‑due taxes, but they rarely identify a legitimate agency. Hang up, block the number, and report the call to the FTC or your state consumer protection office. Never share personal or financial details with unsolicited callers, and double‑check any tax‑related offers directly with the IRS website. If you’re unsure, contact your tax professional before taking any action. Staying skeptical and documenting the call can help stop the tax scam and protect others from the same robocall.
