    Consider sending the one page IRS letter about the scams you mention to inform your clients how to handle.
    Also, report it to the IRS or tell each TP that received it to report it to IRS Fraud division.

    They don't care if your number is "real" or not, it costs them next to nothing to dial it over and over. I like the prior suggestion (from Lion, if I recall) to engage a live human and waste their time if you can. So, it's not the worst thing you can do to answer the call. It is good if you can waste their time just a little, since of course your time is more valuable overall. You would be doing a community service.

    I don't have the time to mess with them otherwise I would call up and see how far they get with me!

    I received that exact call myself. Maybe on my business line. Semi-retired hubby likes to talk to them when he has time, lead them on so they can't reach a potential victim during the minutes he is able to keep them on the phone.
