[Bordermarch] IRS spam

[W G Wimberley]

Theresa, good that you were savvy about NOT GIVING OUT PERSONAL/ FINANCIAL INFORMATION online. Don't anyone do it over the phone, either! Scams have been tried that way also, someone calls up and says they are from <insert business, bank, whatever>, and they need to verify some information <reasons of 'attempted theft' to whatever>. NEVER EVER give out information. If someone tries this, alert one's bank or wherever and do not tell anyone nuffink.
 This concludes today's public service announcement.

>Note to everyone, I have recieved 2 email letters in the last week supposedly from the IRS saying that I am to receive a refund of a certain amount of money (both were different amounts). I am assuming that it was sent because I just got my taxes done on the 10th of October from this past years extension. If you happen to receive a notice that has a very legitimate looking Internal Revenue Service logo on it sent it to phishing at irs.gov
