Transcript of call: "Hi, this is the, um, Todd, um, senior tax officer assigned to your file. Good morning. Um, this is Todd Erickson. I'm with the tax review team. I was looking over your file earlier today and wanted to touch base with you with the April 15th deadline getting close. It still looks like there may be something pending, maybe a balance or return that wasn't finished. I know things have been a bit uncertain lately. So the IRS has made some adjustments in certain cases. Depending on your situation, there may be a way to reduce or even clear what's showing. I'm not sure if you've already taken care of it, but if not, it might be worth a quick look. When you have a minute, give me a call at 866-771-6903. I'll be around today till 6 p.m."

I believe this was a Social Security Scam. Burns me up! Said our paper red, white, and blue Medicare card would no longer be good as of January 1. Wanted to send the "new" one. Wanted to confirm my address. I told him I believed it was a scam and hung up.

And ANOTHER call from "NANTY GLO PA"? This one less than a week after the first one. When I looked the # up, another site like this ALREADY had a report that it's a car warranty scam call.
Apparently a health insurance scam call, according to another site like this one (first -- and ONLY legitimate -- result on a Google search for the #, BTW). Do NOT pick up on ANY call you don't recognize caller ID or # or isn't marked as being a "verified" caller!
Picked up and hung up on general principle, given the area code (gotten a LOT of hangup calls from 814 #s recently). Turned out I did the RIGHT thing -- another site like this one had it flagged as a "debt reduction" scam call!
Another call from this area code/exchange. All come up as "HUNTINGDON PA" (yeah, with the gap between the city and state info). Picked up and hung up before the callers could say anything (never leaves a message anyway).
Area code 814 belongs to PENNSYLVANIA, UNITED STATES. It is a General Purpose Code which was placed in service on 1947-01-01.
