UPDATE 2014.09.16
This info just came today from a resident of Snow Hill Estates, South Laurel:
QUOTE
There was a voice mail on our home phone yesterday which was an automated sounding voice stating to be Julie Smith with the IRS and we had to call her back at 202-506-8392 before they take action against us.  This is a scam.  A google search quickly confirmed our suspicion:

Another neighbor received a phone call demanding money or their child would be arrested.

Please do not fall prey to calls like this.
