[ale] Fwd: Tax refund (Message ID B344IS74)

[Bob Toxen]

It's happening so don't trust email from ANYONE!!!

That said, the IRS does sometimes ask for your email to send you stuff.

Do NOT send anything confidential via email to anyone (without
encryption, etc. and being VERY sure of the address).
