Your phone rings. You look down at your phone, which reads "IRS." You answer. "Hello?" There's a pause. Then, in an automated tone, you hear this: "This call is to inform you that the IRS is filing a lawsuit against you. To get more information about this case file, please call immediately on our department number (202) 470-2565. I repeat (202) 470-2565. Thank you."
