Today, I found out that the "IRS scam" that I ignored last week was actually not a scam, and now I have a warrant out for me. FML

Wild Nights Out
Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I found out that I have a warrant for my arrest, because I was fishing without a fishing license. FML
Today, I got a letter from the IRS informing me that I owed a debt of $80 dollars from 4 years ago, and that it has now grown to over $800 dollars, and it's due this month. FML
Today, I found out that I owe the IRS money due to my previous job not taking enough taxes out. I am broke, unemployed, and was counting on a big refund so I could pay for my divorce. FML
Today, getting home from a long day at work, I checked the mail and saw three envelopes from the IRS. Apparently I now owe over $4,000. I only have $2 in my bank account. FML
Today, I found out I owe the IRS over $2,000 because of a mistake they made. Their "apology" basically amounted to "Oops, our bad. Now pay up or you're gonna be Bubba's new bitch." FML
Today, I found out that I owe the government money and that the amount will increase if I miss the deadline two months ago. FML
Today, I got the letter from the IRS that would FINALLY enable me to get the tax return I was supposed to get two weeks ago because they needed to confirm my identity. I logged on, entered the information, and was told that I would get my return… after "up to 9 weeks for processing." I need to pay bills NOW. FML
Today, I was told there was a bench warrant out for my arrest because a notice to appear for jury duty was sent to my old address and I never responded. I haven't lived at my old address for 2 years. FML
Today, I found out that my tax filing status was never changed after my divorce. This means I haven't been paying enough and now the government wants its money. FML
Today, I found out that my employers apparently haven't been taking enough money out of my paychecks, and now I owe thousands of dollars in taxes. I already live paycheck to paycheck despite doing nothing but work. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Well with the amount of fake ads there are out there I don't blame you. It's uncanny how many times I've been 'chosen' for a free iPad.

Either way it's still a scam

I work for the police department as a dispatcher in the area I live, and it is a scam. The IRS does not issue warrants. We get multiple calls every day about it. Don't worry! If you are concerned, just go to a police station and say you want to speak with an officer about it. But honestly, it's a scam. Don't freak out!

Wow...you think you have a warrant out for your arrest, and so what do you do? Why post on FML of course!

Man, they are trying really hard. Our old family computer got a message that locked up one of the profiles. Message popped up, something about illegal **** and the FBI coming to knock down the door. BUT, these handy sweethearts could fix it all for 500$ as long as we handle it today and don't involve the authorities. -.-' luckily we're an IT specialist family. Took my brother a week to clear up the virus, but he says it was one of the best he's seen. The computer literally could do nothing while on that profile, and it turned out it was slowly eating up our RAM. Scammers and computer nerds are getting too friendly. Don't trust anything that comes over email. Like everyone has said, call the IRS directly to check out the status of any account on you. But, if you REALLY have a warrant, man. Good luck? :/
