Avoid returning calls from unknown numbers that claim the IRS is suing you; the agency never initiates lawsuits by phone. If you receive a pre‑recorded message demanding payment, hang up, block the number, and report it to the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration. Use your phone’s built‑in blocking features and consider a third‑party call‑screening app. Never share personal or financial info with unsolicited callers, and verify any tax issue directly with the official IRS website or phone line.

I received a similar call, claiming to be from the FBI, stating that I needed to return the call due to a lawsuit. If you do decide to call back, be cautious not to stay on the line for too long, as this can put your personal information at risk. They can potentially record your voice and use it against you, or even track down your location
