I have already started to see tax scams in the wild...Here is a screen shot of an email that you could potentially receive. One thing to notice is that it is coming from --> under-forms at irs. state. co.us. I have also read that some people are starting to recieve sms messages for similar types of malicious activity.
By clicking on the link or navigating to the site you will be directed to enter your name, social security number and credit card details. In addition to these CVC/CVV2 and ATM pin numbers. WOW. Please be careful
Here is a link to the IRS website
