I received a voice mail message telling me I do not get a trial and I have to call the IRS agent back. What do I do?
This is a message the scammer will use to get you to call him or her back. Once you call the scammer back, he or she will then force you with threats of arrest unless you obtain the amount of money the scammer is asking for either by going to your bank and obtaining the funds and transferring them via western union or by way of money cards like green dot. Do not give anyone money or your account information or you will be a victim.
