Malware Alert

[JPatrick]

I'm getting daily SPAM alerting me to a problem I have with the IRS..
Comes with impresssive IRS graphics/forms and all, but my research shows that this beast has been around before and is now being given a second run.

Below is the opening line of the scam. I modified the assigned number.

"
Your federal Tax payment (ID: 98XXXXXXXXXX), recently initiated from your checking account was canceled by the your Bank.

It caught my eye because I have in fact sent in various forms/checks this year.
BEWARE!!

I got one from AT&T

Great graphics, but scam because it said to go the linked website and put in ID, Pswd, etc.

That's phishing, not malware.
