I got the call as well.  I know the IRS does not place phone calls.  They do all their correspondence thru mail.  I knew it was a scam.

Got a message when I got home that the IRS was going to sue me. I know that the IRS does not call you on anything. Don't call this number back.

Got a call this morning from 315-288-3008 said they were the IRS and they were going to sue me and this was the final notice didn't get the chance to get the number they left but called from my call log it was an answering machine that said,the person your trying to reach is unavailable please leave a message after the beep then tried to use the internet and it was not working called 411 they gave me the number for the IRS 800-829-1040 after a long wait on the phone I got through they said that I didn't owe the IRS any money and they were not going to sue me and that the call WAS A SCAM
and gave me a number for the inspector general of the treasury department to report it 1-800-366-4484. DON'T CALL 315-288-3008 IT'S A SCAM!! If you're still upset or unsure call the IRS directly at the number above or call 411 for the 1800 number your local office of the IRS will not accept live calls so the call is a SCAM!!!

Called and left message that they were filing suit...truly confusing message and left this number (which also showed on the caller id), but when called they said I had the wrong number and there was no indication that this was the IRS

There is a widespread IRS (or CRA) or "tax scam" being  practiced by scammers on both USA and Canadian residents.

USA tax payers should read this:

Canadian tax payers should read this:
http://www.cra-arc.gc.ca/nwsrm/lrts/2013/l131210-eng.html

Short answer:
The IRS never initiates a contact via phone.
They always send a snailmail first.

This scam is also described as scam #11, here:
