Hey all, I decided to prank call these "US Treasury" scammers again, and see if I could get a male audition this time. Enjoy!

Female audition call: youtu.be/RbAJbyHaxvg
The scam: Someone claiming to be with the "US Treasury Department of Legal Affairs" of the IRS will call and say there are certain allegations against your name, and that you have to pay a ridiculous amount for unpaid taxes immediately. They'll insist on a payment right then and there through wire transfer from Western Union/Moneygram. All a complete scam. The IRS will never call out of the blue and demand payment. Screw these scammers! Their numbers change and disconnect constantly, all from VoIP usually. This number is down as well. Check twitter for fresh numbers while they're still connected.
