IRS Scam E-mail

On 9/26 my blog post was about the IRS scam e-mail. I have received as many as 100 of these in my business e-mail accounts. Giving credit to my hosting service company (ICDSOFT), they have all wound up in my Junk Mail folder.

If you receive one or more of these, don't even think of opening it, but if you do open one, do not click on the link in the e-mail. This is a scam and will lead you nowhere but into trouble. For its part, the IRS has stated that they will never contact us by e-mail if ever there were such a situation (under reported income).

Here is what the e-mail looks like. Click on it to view a larger image. Since the image below is a jpg file, you will not be able to click on the link.
