The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) issued today a warning to alert taxpayers and tax professionals of an active IRS impersonation scam campaign sending spam emails to deliver malicious payloads.
This warning was issued after the IRS received several reports from taxpayers during this week regarding unsolicited messages with "Automatic Income Tax Reminder" or "Electronic Tax Return Reminder" subjects, coming from scammers impersonating the U.S. revenue service with the help of spoofed email addresses.
