ATTENTION: BIPOLAR SCAM !!!

Do you remember a few weeks ago I instructed you how to fill out the IRS Stimulus Payment application? Well, now I need to caution you about a scam that is out there preying on people just like you involving that payment!

Now fake emails and letters – supposedly from the IRS themselves – are appearing in the mail and email boxes of people who submitted applications for the Stimulus Payments, telling you that you're not getting your check, or that if you want it faster, you'll have to supply them with a credit card or bank account number. DO NOT FALL FOR THIS!!! IT IS A SCAM !!!

It IS true that you will get your check faster if the IRS deposits your check directly into your checking account, but there was a box for you to check and bank information for you to have filled out on your application if you wanted this done. Now it is too late, so do NOT fall for this scam if you get a letter or email that says this. IT IS NOT FROM THE IRS !!!

When/if you respond to a letter or email asking you for that banking information, what you're really doing is giving those numbers to a thief who will wipe out your accounts and steal your identity!
