I had an actual person call. Not knowing it was a scam, I told her I had already resolved my tax issues with the IRS. She told me she would transfer me (to whom I don't know) and if she did transfer me, no one answered. I hung up and made a note to check to see if this was a scam. Yes it is. Thanks.
Have received this multiple times; Richard Miller (609-769-2567, 231-442-8256)

I received a call from Mary with the same offer as stated below.

Yes! "I received the same message. The message was exactly as stated above but with a different phone number.....Hello, this is Mary Fletcher, state agent FF694 and this is a notification call from US Department of financial release Services and the purpose of this call is to inform all US citizens on our state lists that have passed that about the new zero tax owed tax debt relief program So to enroll in the zero tax owed tax debt forgiveness program. Please call me back at my state-assigned number 866-656-0137."I did not respond either. Thanks to everyone who posted their experiences with this Scam!!
I received the same voice mail and I just deleted it. I never answer calls from anyone that I do not have in my contacts to see if they are legit. If anyone calls claiming to work for a corporation or government agency Always hang up! Then look online for the actual phone numbers for the official company contacts. Same as if Microsoft..Social Security..Banks. etc call you. Most of the time these are scams and you shouldn't ever answer them or accept the calls. There are many great YouTube channels that bring awareness and show how all these scams work. Please look up Scammer Payback, Jim Browning Official, Kitboga,Skelton Syskey,Harvey Dentt, Rinoapoison, and many others.. on YouTube. These are all great content creators who go after these types of scams and try to bring awareness while wasting the scammers time. A few of these also directly go after the scam call centers themselves and report them to the authorities by learning where and who they are. Please share this with anyone you care about especially older people who may be less tech savvy since they are the ones targeting most.
