The IRS Never E-mails

From time to time a client will forward an email to me – they are unsure whether to respond. It looks like it’s from the IRS, it acts like it’s from the IRS – it wants money (just like the IRS), or better yet – wants to GIVE you money – only guess what? It’s NOT from the IRS. It was never from the IRS. The IRS will never email you about taxes due, information they need or any other thing. They use the mail only. So the next time you see an email from the IRS you have 2 choices -

• Delete without reading
• Forward without reading to the IRS at phishing@irs.gov

Save yourself and your friends by letting them know that the IRS NEVER EMAILS!!!!
