I just called the number. It took me several times to get through. When I did, he asked for my phone number. I gave him an old phone number from my childhood (1968-1981). He then asked to verify that number and tried to look it up/call it.. Of course it wasn't active. Finally he asked for my name. I gave him a false name. Then he proceeded with the IRS penalty and I had an arrest warrant, do you want to resolve the case... I said I didn't receive a call from the police. We went round and round. It was glorious. He finally hung up.

I would have asked for proof of the arrest warrant. Asked out of what parish/county just to see what he would say

FYI, the IRS never initiates phone calls. They always use mail. No exceptions.
Good info for older/naive family members.

I have a remote control fart box that I have positioned on my end table next to the phone. I answer on speaker and any spammer or solicitor continually gets the 5 different arse-tearing fart sounds it produces. This works for me. But, I sometimes choose to answer every question with gibberish when I am in the mood to spar.
