The real IRS is not happy.

"If you owe money to the IRS, you're going to get several notices in the mail before we actually call," said Luis Garcia, IRS spokesperson. "The IRS isn't going to call you and demand immediate payment  threaten you with jail or revoke your license, anything like that. 

"Out of the blue a phone call requesting your social security number, it's not going to be the IRS doing that."
