| Please be aware of emails from people claiming to be the IRS and declaring that you'll receive a specific refund amount if you fill out a form. The emails are fake and can cause your identity to be stolen if you give any of your personal information. Some but not all will be from IRS.org which is a dead giveaway because all Federal Agencies end in .gov. If you receive a suspicious email please forward them to phishing@irs.gov.
