Here’s another fake IRS tax refund email. This fake tax phishing email at least tried to look more legitimate, with the “service@irs.ii.gov” email address. Nice try.

If you get one of these emails, NEVER click on the links inside of the email. If you think you may really be up for a tax refund, call the IRS and check.
