  • Be Careful!

    This link was imbedded in a very nice official looking email I received. It took a moment or two for me to recognise that it wasn't a secured website. (I believe 'de' is Denmark ..(?) maybe?)

    I have a mom who believes everything in an email or snail mail is true, and she would have fallen for this.

    Your tax incentive checks will come automatically. There is no paperwork or forms to fill out.

    be careful and let the less computer/internet savy know.

    DO NOT FILL ANY INFORMATION IN THE ON LINE FORM! THIS IS TO WARN ONLY!

    if you look at any url address destined for an email look at the tail end of the email address. whatever follows the "com" other than the USA shows its country of origin. ru is ussr, ph is phillippenes, uk is england etc.
