A call was made claiming to be about IRS tax evasion, likely a scam
IRS tax scam call – how to protect yourself!
Summary — +18728134131
Expert Opinion
Recent call logs reveal a surge in tax‑evasion scams targeting anyone with a +1‑872‑813‑3131 number. Callers masquerade as IRS or Treasury agents, claim you owe federal penalties, and demand an immediate callback to avoid arrest. Because legitimate agencies never request payment or personal data over an unsolicited call, treat any such demand with suspicion. Let the call go to voicemail, then verify the number through the official agency’s website or a trusted directory. Enable call blocking on your device and consider a third‑party spam filter. Report the number to the FTC and keep your personal info locked down.
