Picture this: your phone lights up with a caller claiming you owe back taxes and offering a “zero‑tax” program. The voice is aggressive, the script mentions “The Tax Group,” and the message ends with a request to call back a different number. This is a classic tax‑related scam that preys on fear and confusion. Never give personal or financial details to an unsolicited caller. Hang up immediately, block the number, and report the incident to the FTC or your state consumer protection agency. Verify any tax issues directly with the IRS through their official website or phone line.
The caller ID displayed a number, but the message provided a different number to call back, claiming to be from 'The Tax Group' and stating I might have unpaid taxes, which raises suspicions of a scam.
A call was received from 716-300-8764, and the voicemail provided multiple numbers to call back, including 872-280-8990 and 943-218-9027.
A scam was attempted by a caller claiming to represent a New Zealand tax program, stating that they could make any owed amounts non-collectible, and provided a different number, 1(850)787-6577, as a supposed direct dial-back number.

This appears to be a tax collection scam, claiming the recipient may still owe taxes and offering enrollment in a zero-tax program.
