If there is one agency everyone responds to, it is the IRS. Scammers know this and have developed a host of campaigns using the name of the agency to sucker taxpayers into releasing information. A new email scam uses the threat of underreported income to get consumers to download a malicious file.
The IRS has been trumpeting its efforts to close the tax gap. Depending on the year, the agency estimates that between $300 and $450 billion dollars in tax revenue goes uncollected. One of the primary reasons is the underreporting of income by taxpayers. The email scam currently circulating uses this issue as its basis.
The scam comes to your email box from a purported IRS email address. The subject line of the email states “unreported/underreported income [Fraud Application]“. The body of the email then states that you've underreported income and refers to a unidentified part of your recent tax return which is supposedly attached to the email. You are then supposed to download the attachment to verify it. As you can probably already guess, the download is a malicious file.
Those who are worried about their back taxes and getting in trouble should hire a professional. A tax professional can answer your questions, while also filing all of the past returns that you owe the IRS. If you have more than one unfiled tax return it is a good idea to hire a professional so you do not miss out on anything important.
Unfiled taxes are a big deal, but you are not in major trouble with the IRS. As long as you are willing to fix this situation you can catch up soon enough
