🕵️‍♂️ Cyber Smart Tip of the Week: Be Careful with Tax Refund Scams

Tax season is a popular time for scammers pretending to be the IRS or a tax preparer. They may send emails, texts, or calls claiming there’s an issue with your return or that you’re owed a refund. The IRS will not ask for personal or banking information through email, text, or social media. If you receive a suspicious message, don’t click links or respond—verify through the official IRS website or your trusted tax professional first.
