I found an automated message on my answering machine saying this is the IRS' final notice that they are filing a lawsuit against me...
No names mentioned and the area code given is 316 which is in Kansas... There is an IRS office in Kansas but it's an 816 area code...
Were in good standing with taxes, and have never received an audit letter are any other messages from the IRS..
I reported it to the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration..

Call them immediately and give them your name, date of birth, and social security number so they can check their records to see if they are suing you.

Got one this week on my machine also.
I love dicking around with the "Microsoft Tech Support" people. I usually ask 20 times where the start menu button is. I ask if I can have their IP address after 10 minutes of confusing them. Then end it with "I own a Mac" (which I don't)
ETA: The above is for the Indian scammers that call

Do you really think the IRS is going to call you to tell you it's going to sue you?
I get those calls several times a month. So obviously bogus.

Scam.
If you get a lot of Robo calls start playing this into the phone: LINK
Weird but it actually has stopped some of my Robo calls.
