Phucking Phishers!

I hate People!!! That has been my motto for years now, and today, I was reminded why…

Anyway, I got a fishy email today. It said it was from Internal Revenue Service and the inside said this:

After the last annual calculations of your fiscal activity we have determined that
you are eligible to receive a tax refund of $375.20.
Please submit the tax refund request and allow us 3-9 days in order to
process it.
A refund can be delayed for a variety of reasons.
For example submitting invalid records or applying after the deadline.
To access the form for your tax refund, please click here

Note: For security reasons, we will record your ip-address, the date and time.
Deliberate wrong inputs are criminally pursued and indicated.

Regards,
Internal Revenue Service

I clicked the link to see what this was all about, and it took me to a very official looking page with a link on it that said it was the online form, and I should be prepared to enter a number of a *debit card* to which they could send the refund.

I checked on Snopes, and sure enough: http://www.snopes.com/fraud/phishing/irs2007.asp

If you get an email like this, please forward it to Phishing@irs.gov I’d hate for any of you to get ripped off.

Love, Krystal
