Community Alert! IRS & US Treasury Department Scammers on the Loose!

UPDATE: Another scanner of be aware of. Using 202-455-8888. For more information as to why you should not answer your phone and block the caller, click here. Caller ID states the call comes from Washington, DC.



Twice this week we have received call from people reported as being IRS and US Treasury Department scammers. Should you receive calls from either of these numbers 202-662-3000 in Washington, DC and 301-298-8083, in Upper Marlbo, MD (they also use the " Private Caller ID"), or both of them, as them might be running these scams together, report them but don't talk to them.

The thing with these types of scammers is that in this day and age most people are abreast of their personal business, especially their tax related business.
Stay watchful.
