Who would have guessed that a simple spoofed number could sound like the IRS? Many users report that the line flashes a generic wireless caller ID while the script threatens audits and police visits. The pattern matches a classic IRS impersonation scam that relies on urgency and fear. Hang up immediately, never share personal or financial details, and report the number to your carrier or the FTC. Use your phone’s built‑in block feature or a third‑party app to silence repeat offenders. Keep a log of timestamps in case you need to file a complaint later.
