I received the same type of call. I called them back and informed them that the IRS does not make initial contact using the telephone. The guy simply stated,"have a nice day" and immediately disconnected the call.
Report the Calls to the real IRS here:

•You can also file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission at FTC.gov. Add "IRS Telephone Scam" to the comments in your complaint.

Do consider maybe getting a call blocking device or phone.. You can google them and many are around $50.00 or so.If its a cell phone, some already have call blocking, if not, there are free apps on the web that will work for some. You can google this. If you have a smart phone, there is a free app called call control. Iphones appear to have apps also. Another one is called Mr. Number.
Same thing happened to me. Left message stating that the IRS is going to sue me?!? Makes no sense. Probably a scam to get personal identifying information on people, such as Social Security Number, Date of Birth, etc.
