Watch Out for Scam Emails from the IRS

RE: Watch Out for Scam Emails from the IRS Post By Don (Guest Post) (03/12/2006) Where can you forward the fake e-mails RE: Watch Out for Scam Emails from IRS Post by smcarney (100) | (02/26/2006) Profile | Contact A great place to check out such things to see if they are real (as well as other urban legends) is Snopes.com. Here's the link I found for just this type of email: http://www.snopes.com/inboxer/scams/phishing/irs.asp If it sounds too good, it probably is - check it first!

Because we handle a lot of accounts, I quite often get all the spam before anyone else. We can filter some of it, but must be careful not to filter out our clients and website users mail. For any email from Paypal or Ebay (that you were not expecting), you can forward to spoof@paypal.com or spoof@ebay.com and they will send you back an answer quickly. Also it is important to never login to your bank or credit card accounts through an address in an email. Go to the site directly and login there.
