I keep getting the call below from 855-897-7577 regarding some Union Refund for my business. Can anyone tell me if it is a scam or not? Let me know in a comment below.
"Hi, this is Kenneth... union's refund today is Tuesday the 25th. Could you call us direct at 855-897-7577. Again phone number 855-897-7577. Reaching back out.We still see that your business should be entitled to reference ... the claim the W-2 employees. This would be for 2020/2021. If you have a few minutes we can give you the total refund amount going back to your business as well as the time frame you will be receiving your refund check so hopefully speak with you. Bye bye."

I get the same msg from the same person. I do not own a business and never saw a place try to hard to give someone a refund.
I got the same message...my husband and I are both in unions, but I'm guessing this is a scam.
I also received the exact call with exactly the same message but they were using another phone to call 469-390-0327.
Ive received this exact one, and a number of others regarding the same things with w-2. Cant speak to legitimacy, but its not relevant to me.
I've received the same message a couple times about getting a W-2 employee refund. Funny, it seems like this would come directly from the IRS not some guy calling me on my cell.
