Does the IRS Call People They are Going to Audit?
August 30th, 2009I had a message on my phone and so I called the 1-800 number on my voicemail, it answered the IRS. Evidently the IRS called me. Could it be that the IRS wants to audit me? Should I get a hold of a tax attorney? I think it is for real. I file my taxes every year, but sometimes I file late. I also heard of a lot of scams out there and some companies actually pretend to be the IRS. So, I cannot be sure if it was a hoax or the real IRS wanting to do something like get more information from me or possibly audit my tax returns. Can someone clarify? Thanks.

If you have a unpaid tax bill and haven’t paid it, IRS may try to call you before taking enforced collection action.
just be smart when you call back and dont give out any dumb information like your SSN, credit card etc. If it is legit they will probably cut straight to the chase.
