The DATCP is reported that several individuals throughout Wisconsin have received phony IRS calls. The callers have threatened individuals with jail time if they don’t make an immediate payment on the “taxes”. While this type of call is not unusual, the number of them has risen drastically throughout the state. It should be noted that the IRS will never threaten you over the phone with arrest due to back taxes. Authorities are advising citizens to immediately hang up the phone if they receive such a call, and report it to your local police department.
