Phishers Bait People With IRS Refunds

Another phishing attack plays upon the greed of people, this time in the form of a tax refund. More than two dozen domains discovered by McAfee pose as official IRS sites offering the windfall. Don’t you believe it. The form presented on the phishing site asks for so much information, we don’t know whether to feel sorry for the victims who fall for it or not. Social Security number, debit card number, CVV number, PIN code…information that is easily copied onto another magnetic card and used to steal money.

They also want the person’s name, address, and phone number too. Add identity theft to the likely crimes against people who fall for this phish. Phishers Bait People With IRS Refunds
