This is a total scam run out of India. First off, the IRS does not file lawsuits. If there is a need for court action, the IRS makes a request to the DOJ which makes the final decision whether or not to go to court-- usually to enforce a collection action of some kind or another. See: http://www.irs.gov/irm/part5/irm_05-017-004.html
But this only happens after a long period of administrative negotiations with the taxpayer. Before any court case would happen, the taxpayer would be well aware of it. IRS is never going to cold-call you and tell you that a case is being filed against you out of the clear blue sky. IRS always initiates contact by US mail.
This is just a scam where somebody cold-calls, pretends to be IRS and tries to scare you into paying money to somebody by Green dot money pak which is untraceable.
Ignore the call and do not return it. Block the number.

Recieved a call today from this number. It was a computer generated message saying it was the IRS. It said this was my final call notifying me to call them back. I did not have a pen and psper to write down the number they wanted me to call back to.
message from this phone number was left on my mobile. sounded like a computerized call. claimed that the IRS was about to file a lawsuit against me. gave me a bogus # to call in DC. But when I called the 607 739 9798 #, it was out of service..
There is a long-running scam which the iRS has reported. Apparently in some cases, these [***] get people to give them credit card #'s, ss #'s etc. Immigrants are often the target of this scam with threats of deportation.
I reported this call to the IRS online.
