I got one of these a couple of weeks ago. Snaxx gave me a link to report it as spam.

I guess there are those out there that believe this stuff.

Is this real, or is it from the Nigerian based branch of the IRS?

1. The IRS doesn't have my email address
2. The IRS can spell department
3. Its the Department of Treasury not "the Treasury"
4. If it was a refund it would be addressed to both taxpayers.
5. The IRS knows my name this guy doesn't

2. The IRS can spell department .

Large bureaucracies can make mistakes. I still have my Burlington Northern Santa Fe calendar with April 31.

However, I think your e-mail is a scam...

I hope these guys don't audit me for not reporting all those monies I got from unsuspecting old people as income!

But I sure do want to claim that refund!
