I just got an email from the IRS from info.manager@irs.gov

 

Is this actually from the IRS? I could not read what it said because it was nothing but CSS. Does the IRS send emails?

 

I provide intangible services and have a TPT, file city and state so I don't think I am violating any tax laws.

Thanks!

FAKE! Just delete.

 

I got the same email. View the headers. Here is mine. check out the "received" part. (this section: from irs.gov ([199.196.144.6]) by 139.195.146.228) NOT from irs :) That "by" IP address is from Indonesia.

there are also lots of typos....

the irs does not send unsolicited emails.

Do not open any attachments!

 The modern medical license process for both MDs and DOs has evolved into a difficult and time-consuming bureaucratic exercise that can become a nightmare very quickly if not handled properly.
