Another IRS Scam

I received a call on my cell phone that caller ID listed as (619) 548-2875.  The recorded voice said it was a call from the IRS, and the were going to file a lawsuit against me.  This is, of course, a scam. If you get one of these calls, don't call them back, don't do anything.  Don't even call me.  This type of scammer is virtually impossible to take private action against. They operate in a way that they don't have any assets that you can get to even if you can find out who to sue.  You can report them to the F.B.I.'s Internet Crime Complaint Center (known on the web as IC3) at www.ic3.gov.
