Earlier today, I received a fraudulent voicemail (without a robocall) about their new “tax debt program” that they falsely claim I heard about in the news. When I called the toll-free number they asked me to dial, I was met with the Scammistani National Anthem before their representative answered under the guise of an “agent with The Tax Group, LLC

User reports on 800Notes claim that the scammers are Indian, but are answering calls with a soundboard while posing as agents with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). However, a user on the “ScamNumbers” subreddit called the same toll-free number and had a representative reveal the true identity of their company as ATS Tax Group, LLC, a fraudulent tax consultancy firm that is listed on the Better Business Bureau as operating out of 101 Convention Center Dr Ste 1225, Las Vegas, NV 89109-2017 under the leadership of Greg Luke.

The ATS in their name is an abbreviation for American Tax Solutions, which is listed on OpenCorporates as operating out of 1055 W 7th St. #1600, Los Angeles, California, 90017.

And I know I’m not the only resident of Rochester, New York that they attempted to defraud, as News10NBC reporter Deanna Dewberry received a fraudulent letter from them in March of last year. The letter was falsely written under the guise of Monroe County’s nonexistent “tax processing unit” and falsely claimed that Dewberry’s property will be seized of she doesn’t call their toll-free number.

These fraudulent letters forced the Wisconsin Department of Justice to take action against American Tax Solutions in November 2022 along with the fact that they were operating in the state without a license. American Tax Solutions, LLC settled the case for $328,000 in consumer restitution and forfeitures and has been permanently barred from sending mail solicitations or selling any services to Wisconsin consumers.

American Tax Solutions, LLC and the ATS Tax Group were sued by Jordan Brewster in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey for racketeering under 18 U.S.C. § 1964 alongside GetATaxLawyer.com (now GetATaxLetter.com) and Equity Finance, Inc.

American Tax Solutions and GetATaxLawyer.com have also been sued by Michael Castaneda in the Los Angeles County Superior Courts over a labor dispute.

The scammers flooded my cell phone, which is on the do-not-call registry, with spam calls just to send the following AI-generated voicemail:

“Hey, it’s Connie Daniels with the Filing Resolution Division of Same Day Tax Resolution LLC calling about file number DEN53791-G. Go ahead and give me a callback at (877) 931-0017. It’s regarding your missed filings and the wonderful options now available to get caught up with little to no penalties incurred. Um, I’ve got some great news for you about some new programs that have recently taken effect for 2025. We also recently sent you this info in the mail, and I just wanted to discuss your elimination and relief options for your back tax debt. It’s imperative that I speak to you just as soon as possible as the current hardship and relief options are extended only until the 14th. If you need to file 2024 as well, or have problems with filing, we have a team dedicated to assist you with that as well. So again, my phone number is (877) 931-0017. I’m looking forward to hearing back from you. Have a great day! And if you would like to opt out of future calls, please just call back the caller ID on your cellphone.”

  • (833) 851-0292 (Telnyx, number I was asked to call)
  • (205) 732-1100 (Nuso, another number I was asked to call)

The scammers didn’t call me, but left a fraudulent voicemail in violation of the TCPA that reads as follows:

“Hi, this is Danielle Fox with the Nationwide Filing Assistance Agency. It’s Thursday morning, May 22, and I am reaching out because time is almost out on a critical update that could directly impact your situation. Back in February, new released guidelines were announced that allows certain tax debts over 1 year old, as well as missed filings, to be reclassified. That means, depending on your situation, you could drastically reduce or even completely eliminate what you owe. We’ve already helped a lot of people get into this program, but the window is closing. This is your final opportunity to take action before the extended review period ends. If you’ve been putting this off or you’re unsure whether you qualify, now’s the moment to find out. Call us immediately at (833) 851-0292. Again, that number is (833) 851-0292. The process is fast, completely confidential, and our team can walk you through everything in just a few minutes. If this message doesn’t apply to you, or you’d like to opt out, simply call back the number that appeared on your caller ID.”
