IRS Tax Refund Scam Email
Seems a little early to be discussing tax season. As a small business owner I dread tax time unlike you employees who actually get tax refunds back! Damn you. lol. In any event, I checked my spam folder today and found an email stating that I had a huge tax refund of $134.80! Watch Out Now, "I’m Baaaaaalling!" with that type of money! Not! (No disrespect to those who would get really excited about that amount of money.) In any event this tax refund email is another big scam, fraud, ripoff or what have you. So watch out. It was easy to spot because I was blind copied along with tons of other people. Furthermore I’m pretty certain Uncle Sam isn’t just going to send a mass email about a refund.
