Beware of e-Mails Claiming to be from the IRS

We have received notification from the IRS that bogus email scams are resurfacing, including one involving payments allegedly rejected by the Electronic Federal Tax Payment System. The email has a link that may download malicious software.

All unsolicited e-mail claiming to be from either the IRS or any other IRS-related components should be reported to phishing@irs.gov.

For more information about how to protect your personal information and what to do if you receive a suspicious IRS-related communication is available on IRS.gov at this LINK
