The Internal Revenue Service has issued another warning about tax scams, the second in just over a month. If this sounds familiar, this is exactly the same type of scam SnapChat fell for the other day.
The IRS has learned this scheme — part of the surge in phishing emails seen this year — already has claimed several victims as payroll and human resources offices mistakenly email payroll data including Forms W-2 that contain Social Security numbers and other personally identifiable information to cybercriminals posing as company executives.
