Retiree & Health Care Rep warns of IRS scam.

Subject: IRS scam

Today I received an e-mail from the IRS that I have a tax refund if I

fill out a form requiring my SS number and a credit card number so

they can credit the refund to that card. It sure is official looking

but don't fall for it. I called the TV station and they confirmed it is a scam.

PS: A follow-up note from CoffeeCops - This problem was reported on television a few days ago and an IRS representative informed the public that they DO NOT contact any tax payer by email to inform them of a refund. Do not give away your personal information to anyone you do not know or trust.
