Texas Lizard Liz, they'll never take me alive, and because you've been such a good friend over the years I won't let them take you alive, either. I mean, what are friends for, right?

Choctaw Jack Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 Me too.Evidently I'm wanted by the IRS and the SSA."IRS" guy told me he was going to send law enforcement out to arrest me. I asked him to please do so because I've worked with a lot of them and it's always good to see old friends. He hung up on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matthew Duncan Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 Forty! Thanks for the reminder! Couple weeks ago they left me a Voice Mail that if I didn't call them back within 15 minutes a warrant for my arrest would be issued. Forgot all about until I read your post. Can't find their phone number, I'll have to wait until they call back again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TN Mongo, SASS #61450 Posted August 5, 2019 Share Posted August 5, 2019 My brother, who is an investigator for the sheriff's dept. in a county in the Tampa area, got the call that deputies were coming to arrest him for his IRS problems. He had even identified himself and his position when he picked up the phone. They hung up when he responded, "great, send them to office ##44".

Big Jake1001 Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 They called me and said the agents were at the corner waiting for the call to arrest me I said, OH Lordy Lordy what can I do not to get arrested. He said stay on the phone with him and go to Wall Mart or Target and buy gift cards for $700. I said how can I go there? I'm on the phone with you. He said drive there with the phone on, but don't hang up. I said the cord isn't long enough to go to Wall Mart or Target. OH Lordy Lordy, here comes the G men. He asked if i have a wireless phone? YUP. cordless is wireless.....Right? But it only works in the yard and quits when I go more than 50 feet. Hey Agent Sam, I'm in the front yard and don't see anyone at the corner waiting to arrest me. Wait a minute....I see the bushes moving, do they hide in Bushes? I'm getting real scared now Mr Agent Sam whatever your name is......are you sure you got the right guy?

Lorelei Longshot, SASS #44256 Life Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 I got the same call a few years ago. Being retired has benefits as I spent over 5 hours calling them back and asking things such as "Do you realize you are working a scam? Do these scammers pay you well for trying to scam people? Do you get a percentage of the money scammed from people?" After 5 hours they disconnected the phone number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat Riot Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 I recently received a message that my SSN had been frozen and the US Marshals were outside my home waiting to take me in. I looked outside and I am very impressed with the Marshals abilities to blend in and camouflage themselves. Most impressive was the Marshal disguised as a Lhasa Apso doggie. I felt bad for the lady Marshal pretending to be his handler. This guy was so convincing. He pooped in my neighbor’s lawn and the lady Marshal had to pick it up in a baggie. Such dedication and realism. I was very impressed. Something must have changed regarding my case because no one approached my home and later all was quiet. Perhaps they are waiting for the go ahead from Supreme Headquarters in Mumbai? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even after I got out I was at work an hour ahead of my scheduled start time and got more work done in that hour than some guys did all day. Union steward told me I was making the others look bad. I told him they looked bad because they kept voting for union representation. He doesn't like me any more.....and that was nearly 50 years ago.
