Earlier today, a recorded voice pretended to be from the Oregon Department of Revenue, demanding a quarterly tax report and threatening a penalty. The call used official‑sounding language but offered no verification and pushed you to fax or call back immediately, right away. Never share personal or financial details with unsolicited callers, especially when they pressure you for quick action. Hang up, block the number, and verify any tax issues by contacting the agency directly through its official website or phone line. Report the incident to the FTC and your state attorney general. Stay skeptical of urgent tax‑related threats and scams.
I copied the message i recieved from them from my visual voicemail, and it looks like a scam
Indeed, it is...
This call was supposedly from the Oregon Department of Revenue and Employment Department, claiming they had not received my quarterly report, despite it being filed and faxed, highlighting the importance of verifying information.
A voicemail from this number claimed we had a tax penalty notice for $2,500, which would be revised and sent again, with a promise to call back
This particulaur telephone number is not asociated with the Oregon Department of Revenue, and a complaint has been filed with the Oregon Attorney General's Office; do not fax them any documents or provide personal informations
It seem like a spam call, I pay my oregon tax on time every year, the voice on the phone said it was from oregon revenue and needed me to call back asap, but I figure out it was a scam after searching on internet.
Could someone please clarify what this call is about, as the speaker talked too quickly for me to understand
A recorded message from a woman with an official tone claimed I had not reported my second quarterly income tax, providing options to fax or call in the information, allegedly from the Oregon Dept of Revenue, despite my never having lived in Oregon.
