Per the IRS website; do not fall for phone and phishing scams that use the IRS as a lure.
Thieves continue to represent themselves as an agent of the IRS, offering bogus refunds or threatening payment for unpaid taxes.
The IRS does not ask for PIN’s, passwords or confidential information on credit card or bank accounts.
If you get an unexpected email, do not open any attachments or click on any links contained in the message; instead the IRS is requesting that you forward the email to [email protected].
