Received an automated call from the IRS stating I was being sued. I knew it was completely bogus and all these comments confirm that.

Yep, it's a scam.  I'm a tax attorney in Chicago and I just got a call.   I answered it because I have clients in the Seattle area and recognized the area code, but the IRS does NOT call people to say they are being sued; and they certainly don't call people's cell phones, as my caller did.  IGNORE.

Thank you for the response, As I just received a voice mail stating I was being sued by the IRS and to call this phone # back too. At lease I know I can ignore the voice mail.

IRS Scam:

The IRS does not need to sue anyone.  They send you first class letters delivered by the Post Office.  Several of them.  Ignore those, and they then send certified letters that you need to sign for.  Again delivered by the Post Office.  Ignore those and they simply freeze your bank accounts and anything else you own.  If they can do that, then why would they bother with a court case that might take them years before they get in front of a judge?  They also do not bother arresting people for a few thousand dollars for the same reasons I have already given.

Official IRS Government site detailing this scam and providing links to report it:

If you feel you SSN has been compromised, in addition to putting a fraud alert at the 3 credit bureaus, you may want to notify the IRS.  Here is the link, fill out the proper form (probably 14039):
