I've seen versions with both these fake "IRS" clowns as well as the fake "Microsoft" clowns. Some of them are very creative.

Russian prisons are horrible
Chinese prisons are horrible
Vietnamese prisons are horrible
Ukrainian prisons are horrible
Indian prisons are horrible
Nigerian prisons are horrible
I patched one of those fake IRS scammers to the real IRS so that the genuine IRS might get a chance to audit those creeps.
