IRS Tax Refund Scam
There is an email scam floating around these days. Recipients are receiving an email that appears to be sent by the IRS. The email looks very authentic, Beware!
Do Not open this email or download the attachment in the email. It is a fraud.
The IRS will NOT ever email you unless you first contact them. They WILL NOT EVER email you to tell you you owe money or are due to receive a refund.
The bogus email message goes like this:
After the last annual calculations of your fiscal activity we have
determined that you are eligible to receive a tax refund of $648.50.
Please submit the tax refund request and allow us 3-6 days in order to
process it.
A refund can be delayed for a variety of reasons. For example submitting invalid records or applying after the deadline.
Please submit the form attached to your email in order to finish your tax
refund
Note: For security reasons, we will record your ip-address, the date and
time.
Deliberate wrong inputs are criminally pursued and indicated.

Internal Revenue Service
