<body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'>Dear Fred,<BR> <BR>Good to post this if you got something fishy like that call. Rest assured, no legal process can start with a phone call esp from the IRS. They always deal by mail. In fact, the law holds that the IRS (among other govt offices) cannot be bound by telephone advice or directions.
