Let's look at another way in which this scam should seem mysterious: the scammer stating that the money must be paid now, NOW, NOW!!!
Whenever a person is told that they have to pay within a VERY limited amount of time to avoid a terrible Federal consequence, alarm bells should be raised. Now - it is entire possible to run against a time limitation when dealing with the Federal government. For example, you may have a certain deadline to pay taxes, file immigration paperwork or pay a fine. However, the idea that a representative from the Federal government would call a person out of the blue and tell them they have only hours to pay a fee to avoid a terrible Immigration consequence is not realistic.

Scams such as this one rely on the element of surprise - that the person will be so shocked and terrified that they will do anything to comply.
