- Julie wasted these IRS scammer's days today to bring more awareness to these scams. How many red flags can you spot in these conversations?
Don't forget to report scams here: www.bbb.org/sc...
IRS = Indian Revenue Service
International Revenue Scam rather
When describing Indians you must clarify, dot or feather?
Your expressions and reactions are priceless! Thank you for everything you are doing to protect people against these scams!
This video is fake. Can't you see?
It doesn’t sound fake at all. And it’s from the Better Business Bureau in Wisconsin.
@@yeldaRooBTKAM Please don't feed the trolls. Just ignore them.
@@kingofallwhites OMG - we must trust the BBBW.
You know its a scam when you call the IRS and your not immediately put on hold for an hour listening to grating elevator music of corny old 80's tunes.
For sure! When I've had business with them and call, it's 45 minutes on hold first. At least.
And when they contact you by mail, you also know it's a scam because it's the IRS.
Back in the old days you got to listen to Mozart and Beethoven. My favorite was Ein Kleine Nacht Musik.

Funny but yes!!
Scammers disliking this video!🤣
So IRS has a call center in India or Pakistan? Hahaha...
And for some reason all their employees have accents but yet all have Anglo names ! Those scammers are truly the scum of the earth !
@@jubalcalif9100 Yes, and often two first names (like Jane Karen, or something ridiculous).
@@RS54321 Indubitably ! You speak the truth, Kemo Sabe ! Thanx for your follow up comment ! :-)
Yeah, sure, them people work for cheap!
They probably make $1 per call. More calls you make money for them, so sad. Get a real job!
I am an IRS licensed Enrolled Agent with almost 40 years in tax practice, and I listened to this with great attention. In the beginning Julie asked us to keep track of the "red flags". As a Tax Professional, I found 19 red flags. Here they are:
Amy Karen's conversation:
1: IRS does not call over a mismatch between what is on a tax return as income and what the IRS has as income for that taxpayer. IRS sends a form letter, CP-2000 is the form for this purpose. It is usually about 8 pages long and describes the mismatch in great detail.
2: The IRS does not ever audit a tax return without inviting the taxpayer to the audit, and this invitation is in writing by postal mail.
3: Amy was calling about the 2012-2017 tax returns in 2018. There is a Statute of Limitations of 3 years for the IRS to audit a tax return (6 if there is a Gross Understatement, which the amount of tax claimed due would show is not the case and no Statute for cases of Fraud, and the scammers state it was a math error later on in the phone call, so there can be no Fraud allegation).
4: IRS allegations of miscalculations and other math errors are corrected internally first, then a letter is sent describing the error.
5: Amy Karen's Badge Number of IR2012-45 is not a valid format for IRS Badge numbers. There are no letters in an IRS badge numbers.
6: No Law Enforcement Agency is permitted to "listen in" on IRS telephone calls.
7: The comment of "Innocent or Guilty" can only be made by a Special Agent, who is part of IRS Criminal Investigation. Since this is not a criminal case, Amy must be a "Revenue Officer" - IRS collections. Owing the IRS money is not in and of itself criminal, it is civil.
8: The statement that a disconnect of the phone line will be considered a confession is a blatant violation of the right to remain silent clause in the US Constitution.
9: Mis-Statements in a tax return (I have no idea what these could be, as a tax return contains only numbers and, if put there voluntarily by the tax payer, brief descriptions of what the numbers are) cannot be a criminal offense, period.
10: The amount allegedly owed ($4,295) over 5 years of tax returns, is less than $1,000 per year. There is no way that owing that little could rise to the 20% of Adjusted Gross Income understatement that would trigger the Gross Understatement penalty that would extend the Assessment Statute from 3 years to 6 years, and certainly would not rise to Fraud which would end the Assessment Statute.
11: There is no Section 67738 of the Internal Revenue Code.
12: The IRS does not send local police to arrest anyone, their Special Agents do it themselves.
13: The "Preliminary questions" asking about prior arrests, bankruptcies, traffic or parking tickets or civil judgments are ALL totally improper.
Jeffrey ? (I was unable to make out his last name) conversation
14: His statement that the error is only 5% is an admission that the tax issue, even if totally true, cannot be Fraud.
15: He mentions that this was a "Random Audit" - first, they are all begun with a mailed invitation to the taxpayer.
16: IRS will not go to Court over a Math Error.
17: Payment Plan? Jeffrey forgot to mention Form 9465 and the fact that with the small amount due (being under $25,000) no financial information from the taxpayer is required, and approval of the Installment Agreement is automatic.
18: Jeffrey goes back to talking about a criminal case, with no mention of the Miranda Warnings or IRS Publication 1 or the taxpayer's right to representation in this "audit" or the Taxpayer's Bill of Rights right to Representation in all matters.
19: Your check that the badge number Jeffrey gave you was a legitimate name in the IRS. Scammers can get legitimate names. At one point I git this same phone call, and the caller used the name of "Nina Olsen". The scammer did not know that at the time Nina Olsen was the National Taxpayer Advocate at the IRS, nor did the scammer know that I know Nina Olsen personally. I asked the scammer why the IRS demoted her from Taxpayer Advocate to Collections. She had no answer.
I offer my services to you as a free consultant to help you through the minutae of tax laws and IRS practice and procedure.

Thank you for all this information! I'm currently studying for my E.A., so this was very useful. I caught a few of the same red flags you did.
Amazing! Thank you for this. I know this will help many see and avoid these red flags in the future. Also very interesting too, all that info.
I would love to get Amy on the phone. I would give her an education about the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.
I thought that the Statute of Limitations was 10 years. That we had to keep all our tax forms and papers for 10 years.
@@faizullakhan1556 You are confusing the Statute of Limitations for Suit (meaning over debts) with the Federal Assessment Statute Expiration Date (ASED for audits).. In some States, that SOL is 10 years. Those States are IL, IN, IA, LA, MO, RI and WV (this is the SOL for written contracts - oral contracts, promissory notes and open ended (like credit card) debts may be different). Most States have a 6 year SOL.
Wow the lady with the "IRS" connected to the police department pretty quickly..must have them on speed dial and awaiting call..also has the same type of accent as the "customer service rep"..Lol Always be aware of Indian scammers. Thank you for doing this.
No law enforcement agency informs anyone they'll be arrested in 30 minutes. They do it as a scare tactic.
Ask them to ask the arresting officers to swing by McDonald's for you and bring a #3 Super-Sized with a Coke since you're gonna be in the -SCAMMER- slammer for awhile.... 😢😂
I'm pmsl really bad you couldn't make this shit up
I had one that tried a southern drawl, but it wasn't working.
@@chadetchieson4455 Kudos to them for trying something different! Sounds like they were bored at work.
I hear the same telemarketer pretty often and I find him pretty amusing as he does a great job approximating different local accents for the first few sentences of a conversation before dropping back into his natural accent.
I remember the day I got a call from the “IRS”. The year I got the call I wasn’t working I took the year off so I could be at home with my son. Anyway, he was trying to tell me how much I owe on and on. I was going with the conversation he tried to threaten me. I told him for one don’t threaten me then he said that he was going to send the sheriff to my house. I said great my husband works for the sheriffs department. I told him I’m looking forward for my husband to use the handcuffs on me. I asked scammer do you know long I’ve been waiting for that to happen. I told the scammer thank you for making this happen for me. He was quiet for awhile then he hung up. My husband doesn’t work for the sheriffs department he is in the military. Lol
that's awesome
That was a clever payback.
Awesome!
@Rebecca, thank you for keeping them on the line, a few less calls happened while you tied them up. Thank you for serving too Hubby may wear uniform, but whole family serves. We did 20 years Army. Great to retire next to Air Force Base, they live better 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
The IRS wouldn't send local cops. As a federal agency they have their own officers. They don't need Homeland Security, Sheriff's nobody. And you wouldn't get arrested, the first thing they'd do is file a lien. Then you'd get a visit from a Revenue Officer. Threats of arrest would never happen.
When does a Police Officer get involved with the IRS and what has it to do with Homeland security? ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!!
One of the biggest clues is that is scam..the 'IRS' answered you phone right away. A few years ago I got a letter from the actual Irs regarding my taxes. It took me two hours(yes 2 hours) to get through to a live person.
Novie's Edible Creations Plus
Yeah it takes forever to get through!
@novie: I also responded to an IRS issue and I was put in touch with the correct agent immediately and they rectified the situation.
Try getting through to the Unemployment office. Not happening. Lol
Congratulations on not breaking up laughing. I love to string them out.
Have you ever been arrested? Yes, for tracking down and beating the cap out of an IRS scammer. Next question.
XD
Could there be anybody out there dumb enough to fall for this scam?
@@Sidfields789 Scammers spread a very wide net contacting as many people as possible. If a fraction of a fraction of 1% respond, they have enough clients to fund their "business".
THE CAP?
"Actually, I don't know if you want to know this, but I just got out of prison on parole for tracking down and slaughtering someone who claimed to be from the IRS but was a scammer..."
I love the script that they read. I can't believe people fall for this. They do prey on the elderly and the uniformed. Sad.
It is sad, which is why we try to spread the word as much as possible. We hope everyone educates the elderly in their lives. Hopefully the less money these scammers can get, the more they will move on to something else!
@@BBBWisconsin and the more time we who are informed and know it's a scam keep them on the phone with us, the less time they will have to scam the gullible. If they call me after May 1st I have no problem keeping them on the phone for hours while I do other work.
@@BBBWisconsin are they (scammers) located here in the States or some other country?
@@ivanhernandez2157 they are in India
@@316nicolez thanks for the heads up :) I've heard many people getting scammed & have learned from those stories. But never thought of the location they work from or who they work for etc.
Wonder what would happen if you said "I want to fight the IRS, and I'm calling my lawyer right now to join in on this conversation." ?
They usually rage then hang up
I did and they threaten you and then hang up . They called me back pretending to be the police it was to funny. I love asking them questions like what is my address and if they are who they say they are why don't they know . I try to keep them on the phone as long as I can . It undermines their confidence and keeps them from a victim.
They cuss you out, sometimes in English, sometimes in Farci (or "Indian," I dunno,' not fluent here); then, they're gone.
@@tomp.6239 Farsi is the language of Iran. Hindi is Pakistan and India. If you do a Google Search for "Hindi curses" you can curse them back in Hindi. That really sets them off.
@@stevekatz3032
Kind of good sport watching some these scammer busters on YT. Getting their stuff hijacked and taken over by some these guys is hilarious; scammers go from "tough talk," threats, to "please, Sir; don't do this to me!" They must get in a load of trouble from their overlords when someone flips their game. I could feel sorry for em,' but when their office vid gets invaded and they're actually visible, they all have gold watches 🤓
Good baiting. How about telling next one you have $25,000 in the bank and see what it makes him or her do, then go along as far as you can …
When have anyone ever got through to a government agency without having to go through a call screening menu. If you can get straight to a department without that then alarm bells should be ringing loud and clear.
fernley stephens right?! I can’t even call the doctors office without the screening menu’
The last time I call the IRS, which was last week, I had to press a bunch of numbers from the menu and waited for literally 2 hours to get to an agent. And trust me, they ain't got no Indian accent.
Sad truth is the elderly in America fall for this shit. It's very sad
It's not just the US...these scammers are worldwide....I get at least four calls a day In the UK from these leeches....sadly people fall for it all the time...I wish I could get hold of them and string the bastards up...
"Amy Karen" very fitting name
"Explain you", instead of "explain to you". Broken English.
"I can't go to jail. This will ruin me! I can't live with this shame!" (gunshot sound effect, and then sound of phone dropping to the the floor, followed by silence until the scammer hangs up)
Good one….I might try that.
Shit, man. I just tell them that they need to speak to my supervising officer because they just called into an active murder scene and we want to know how they knew the victim. 😏
Somebody actually did that and the scammer kept reading his script.
I tell them I just cut myself and I'm bleeding all over the place. The responses I have gotten could be framed and hung on the wall
I just literally hang up on anyone with an Indian accent now unless I'm the one calling in for internet support.
Julie you haven't received a letter because you are being scammed the scammers don't send the letter
Even then I still hang up sometimes because I can't understand some of those Indian accents.
I just talk back to them with the same accent and way of talking. They get really mad.
@@620john620 I repeat everything they say, and try to fake their accent.
@@620john620 I like that!
I had an IRS scammer call me once. They told me that an officer would be at my house to arrest me tomorrow if I don't pay my delinquent taxes right now on the phone. I acted like I just hit the lottery. I said, " That is great news! I need a vacation from working and my 10 kids (not true). Can you please send them to pick me up today instead?" They hung up on me for some strange reason lol.
I'm a retired Federal Agent, and this lady is really good!!
Not convincing from the Philippines...sorry...
This variation is pretty good. I do not hear a boiler room in the background. The Badge number and the citation of a statute. Usually, I ask to confirm a complaint was filed in Court. So I ask which Court and for case number which generally has the scammer hang up. I am an attorney with 25+ years experience a fair amount spent doing consumer law.
"My name is Janet....Janet Evening. My husband's name is Samuel, We are Sam 'n Janet Evening
🎵
🎵 🎵
Haha! nice one- that's a real old joke put to good use!!
How often do you see a stranger across a crowded room?
Once they have found you, they'll never let you go!
Roflmao,
IRS does not call EVER! I had one call like that and I told them it was weird because I worked for IRS and they hung up immediately 🤣. You will notice if you get a call they all are not American.
That's amazing that there was only one Janet Smith on file and so they knew immediately which file to pick. "Smith" is only the most common surname in the United States.
She gave the last name of Smith. Smith is a very common name. So without further identification like social security number how do they know they have the right person?
It's scammer magic
Yea it must be magic they always have the right person without even knowing what your social security number is. Suppose you ask them to read your number back to you just to make sure they have the right person....just curious to what they would give you. I guess they would just hang up. cheers :)
It is scammers period
lol they don't care if it's the "right" person. There isn't a particular person that they are looking for. They are just trying to scam people out of their money.
it's all a show to scam you.
He would have her empty her bank account, her savings account and even her purse. Soulless leeches.
Love it...when she said her name was Janet, I just knew she was going to say "Smith"....lol too funny. Haven't got any calls like this, but if I do, I'm going to waste as much of their time as I can.
I would be interrupting the scammer while she was speaking just to see how much I can piss them off
I like to use a fake thick Indian accent and really jerk them around until they get furious. Sometimes they actually drop the pretext that they are legit and they start cursing 🤣
Joey Tribiani? The one who had a day o' fun with Janice?
After saying she’s afraid this might be a scam and he tells her not to worry, she should start a conversation about how scammers are all dirtbags and lowlifes and need to be shot and see if he will agree with her. THAT would be funny!
I can tell when you asked questions, he started to get stressed, asking questions will fluster them. If you ask which page of the tax return they are saying is wrong, rattle some pages of paper and say you have in front of you. Well done for keeping calm👍👍
The one thumbs down must be involved in the scam.
Jill Traver thanks for the information
UA-cam has been shutting down videos reported by these scammers, once again proving google protects criminals, fraudsters, child abusers and pedophiles on youtube.
😂
I noticed the same as well. He/she must be a scammer.
Dan s Must be. Why else would they thumbs down it?
Thanks for the information on scamtracker! Also I like your facial expressions when they surprise you with another lie 😀 Keep up the good work “Janet” !
Julie doing her thing! Love your channel, keep informing everyone about these low life scammers!!
we need to pass a new law for police or international authorities to bust these people based on these videos. These fools need to be stopped, even if they are in another country.
Cash? You should of replied, "I have four CATS, they're so cute."
Awesome!!
Yes, I have gas……
The irs will not call you! I know this since I did owe back taxes.
I always ask these type of callers to tell me my ssn to verify, literally get an fu and hung up on. It's so much fun. Love how she handles these callers here too
"Do not interrupt me while I give you this information" You have just identified the best way for me to bollix you up.
I say to the scammer, "I'll interrupt you any damn time I please!"
Doing anything to interrupt their script irritates them.
IRS,isn't that an acronym for "Indian Ripoff Scammers".
One scammer told me that IRS stood for the "Indian Railway System." My fondest hope is that he was soon after run over by the Marjipoor Night Mail.
"Don't the IRS usually send something in the mail before calling people? Hello?"
*long pause*
"Sorry." (after frantically searching for the appropriate response from his call script)
Of course. And, in most cases the IRS would have you phone them. Especially as a consumer. Maybe not so much for a business in that the AIC (Auditor In Charge) would have a direct line to the Controller, who would know the AIC's voice automatically and on the spot. As an aside, I was a higher level banking examiner for the FDIC for 33 years. Retired last spring and am with a major bank for my retirement gig. What the hey, it's better than chasing a little white ball around with a club, right ? But, yassir. First time you contact a new bank (as their new federal regulator), you 1-Send a letter, 2-Likely communicate to/fro via e-mail. Noting; neither is really fool-proof. -In most cases you'll meet the shop in-person first as the shop is handed from one EIC to the next (or AIC). As to phoning out of the blue, in your letters and e-mails, you suggest they phone their contact (prior EIC) or contact the Regional Office first to verify. -And you do NOT provide them with the number; they should know better than that.
As to phoning someone completely out of the blue as a bank examiner ? It happened, but you would never-ever ask for sensitive information to be sent without their (the bank) performing some form of due diligence to verify who you are. Never. And that statement held true as far back as I go, so 35 years now re: in a professional position.
The IRS will never call you. They will contact you by mail. They usually give you a number to call them if you have any questions.
Just today I got a call from the “Social Security” and for fun I asked the caller what kind of scam this was. She answered “A Social Security scam” and she hung up! I wonder if she was fed up with the lies.
More videos BBB Wisconsin, this lady is beautiful
Great fun!
I sometimes get a recorded message here in London, saying that I owe back tax, and that if I don't pay asap a warrant will be issued for my arrest. The accents are a dead giveaway as they are here.
What interest would the irs have in a speeding ticket lol...great work as usual
Miss Janet at it again!! Great stuff!!
At least this one wasn't creepy, the "legit" phone tone transfer lol.. the "legit" 2nd level personnel transfer... you can tell when they read the script they sound so robotic... "badge #" lol silence and crickets after getting caught with common sense... "inside the courthouse" urghh at least get a solid handle on the English language... badge # 🤣 wonder how they actually got a legit IRS badge # hes asking for cash??? No shame..
The long pauses are our favorite part. Answering these questions weren't in his script!
She is very entertaining to watch, irrespective of all the scamming stuff.
Thanks for your efforts combating these scammers! I'll be glad when all the scammers are gone, but then I'll miss your nice videos 😅
We hope the scammers go away too! Julie will just have to star in other UA-cam videos :)
The accent sounds more Thai / Vietnamese.
I've a few Thai friends who have that same accent.
Then it transfers to India..
But seriously well done and very clean official video not like the scambaiters.
Scammers don't have badge numbers.... You got to love that guy!
No, just inmate numbers.
THEY ALWAYYS HAVE AN ACCENT!!! This crosses the line, and is no longer an Innocent robo caller. because now its embezzlement, false accusation, the list of offenses is longer then a roll of toilet paper. Interpol should get involved in this.., because of course this call is from another country.
Love how they tell us, you, the tax identity victim, to be truthful, why they are straight up lying to you
😂😂😂
You killed me when you said that you have only $30 on your checking 😂🤣 , and $100 on your saving and zero cash on you .😅🤣😂
What's up with all the
FLASH FLOODING OF
INDIAN SCAMMERS?
Once he found out you only had a hundred bucks in your savings and 30 bucks in your checking is why he said he'll call you back and he never does that's what the secret is you just told everybody so that's how you handle it you don't have any money good job I love that one
I want to see a video a real IRS agent getting a scam call like this.😂
It's a very short video, not real interesting
This goes for everyone of these episodes. But, *when no actual jobs in your area are hiring except a sketchy phone company.*
I'd have toyed with them for hours, acting like I wanted to pay it immediately. That sucks them right in, and wastes their time. And it's so much fun!
Hmmm, I wouldn't peg him as a "Jeff"... "Jack" maybe... *JACKASS" that is! 😆
I've been getting about 3-4 of these calls per month lately... Always fun to waste as much of their time as I can before it turns into a vulgar shouting match! I've pee'd a little because their potty mouth is funnier than their ridiculous scamming attempts! 😂
They're outright scammers and thieves and they have the sheer audacity to scream and insult you when you call them out on their obvious dishonesty lol ! I'd love to spend 5 minutes alone in person with a scammer in front of me. He'd be screaming for a different reason lol ! The nerve of these bastards !
Do you have any cash? Savage af😂😂😂
The IRS or social security isn’t going to call you, ask you for money, or ask you for iTunes cards. Or either ask you for personal information. They will send you a letter in the mail.
A lot of the time an accent is an immediate giveaway.
Little known fact: There is only one Janet Smith in the United States.
That's why the (totally legitimate) IRS agent was able to find her case so quickly.
I would just ask them: "when did the IRS move their offices to India?"
Might not be surprised if they did. Just about everybody else has.
I think I am in love with Janet Smith, whoever she is.
I love it when they ask me if I'd like to resolve my tax discrepancies with an Itunes gift card because we all know the Internal Revenue Service take payments via gift cards. smh....
I heard his name on a number of scam calls
You caught him out there for a second asking about notification through the mail, his response was lame.
Funny, 3 years later. They're still trying this same crap. I got called by an "agent" with a badge number OI- something.. I laughed at him, and then told them it's interesting since the IRS doesn't call you. They hung up after.
Both the IRS and the police seem to have an unusual amount of employees with a heavy Indian accent.
I got a call from SSA and they threatened me of arrest if I don’t call them back. At the time, I said to myself “hahaha good luck finding me. I’m on vacation out of state.”
Yay, new upload! ^^
Great imformative videos. Please keep making them
Julie - brains, beauty and balls! (sort of...) I love your expressions!
I love ❤️ the office atmosphere you have there. It looks so professional and of course the call your making to the scammer
did you ring that number and was it a high cost telephone number for her to keep you on the phone for that long. the scammers were very believable I get them all the time and they are good fun but you have to be careful when playing with them especially reverse charging.
Also beware of the email scammers
When the IRS scammers call telling me there is a warrant for my arrest later in the day I tell the scammers I'm broke, I haven't eaten in 3 days and ask the "IRS" agent if they couldn't please send the arresting officers immediately because in jail they have to feed me.
Janet is SUPER PRETTY wow I think she is lovely
Yes, she spent 12 minutes on the phone and tried to teach us all a lesson in consumerism. She did a great job and all you came away with is she's super pretty?
'Scammer don't have a badge number.'
They always put that badge number out there as if it's rock solid proof. Hilarious.
Miss I can watch you do this all day your a natural scammer screwwer upper lol 👍👍😁
Scammers always omit the word "to" like when they say "explain me".
It’s for these calls that I have an industrial grade air-horn in my office! I actually have to stand outside the office when I let ‘er rip!
I did that until I realized the phone doesn't transmit the airhorn at full volume. One guy just kept pitching between blasts!
@@richiejohnson
The trick is to speak softer and softer to get him to turn his volume to maximum. Usually just before you’re giving your account details.
@@ckom0007 pro tip! Thx
I just got a scammer call 2 mins ago. He had an Indian accent and his name was Mike lol. I wanted to have fun with him, but Im having really bad period cramps so I just hung up lol
I enjoy these videos and I love your expressions and how you laugh at these scammers .So great job posting these videos to make consumers aware of these fake IRS scammers
883 thumbs-ups. 20 thumbs down as of 11/12/19. I wonder why the thumb-downs. Maybe scammers are watching. Can they be tracked by their reaction?
I once started getting these calls so I turned things around, I begin to call them, left long messages, I even sang on the messages, I called them day and night it was so bad they begged me to stop calling them, at the end they disconnected their number 😅😅😂
What a great idea ! Good for you ! Bless you for your anti-scam efforts !
Parking tickets?? 😝
A few years ago I received one of these calls from the "IRS," as always someone with an Indian/South Asian accent so thick I could practically smell curry. My apologies for a politically incorrect remark, but I still laugh at the scammer's lack of sophistication- "If you don't pay up now we will put you behind THE bars." Yes, "behind THE bars," not "behind bars". Very funny but of course very sad.....
Yes! I'm laughing at the use of "courthouse" by these people!
Don't apologize for the "smell like curry" line. That is funny! I was laughing.
Trial by telephone... It's sad that the IRS has the power to put such terror into peoples' hearts that they fall for this nonsense
did they ever call you back...if so what happened?
They haven't called back. Probably too disappointed to go after someone who only has $130 to her name.
Don't the IRS have any people that don't have broken English from India? TRUMP NEEDS TO BRING THOSE JOBS BACK. LOL
Never say things like "certainly, correct, right". etc. They take those words of consent and use them to apply for credit cards etc.
and dont say yes!!
How about ‘whatever’ or ‘uh huh’?
I dont get it? You mean they use the recording of the voice for consent to apply for credit card over the phone?
I have heard that before. Maybe best to just click 'em
If I don't recognize the number, I don't answer the call. Period.
I’d love to hear their reaction after you say: “oh, you’re working for the IRS? Me too!”
I got an IRS scam and they threatened me with deportation and I said good, where to cuz I need a vacation......they hung up
Ha ! Good one ! I like the way you think ! :-)
"Jeffrey Tribbiano" certainly didn't sound Italian. 🤔
