Uncle Sam does not want you (to visit this phishing site)

Uncle Sam does not want you (to visit this phishing site) As April 15th gets closer, we're seeing more and more phishing scams that involve email messages claiming to be from the IRS. The latest variant says you have a tax refund due and asks you to click on a link to submit a form to claim it. The link takes you to a site that looks very similar to the real IRS site and asks you to fill in personal information - which of course can then be used for identity theft. The IRS does not send emails asking for personal information, and if they determine you have a refund coming, they notify you by snail mail, not by email. You should report bogus IRS email to the IRS at phishing@irs.gov. Read more about these scams here: http://www.wxpnews.com/XNQ8B5/060404-Phishing
