One important announcement
For all of those who have Income Tax return and have received an e-mail stating that there has been an error in calculating your tax and a refund has to be issued, please ignore it.
It is circulated by hackers. Once you click on the link it will direct you to a net banking login page and once you login into it, your bank account will be hacked.
Please ignore such emails. Income tax department will send an intimation about refunds/ payable through a proper notice.
If you check the sender’s address it would appear as [email protected] & not [email protected]
Note the *e* is missing from *efiling* & *filing* is spelt as *filling*. Please widely circulate this message so that nobody falls pray to hackers.
In spite of spelling variations, both domains belong to the Government of India only (.gov.in). Most probably, the domain name .gov.in be followed by .info, .name or other private name suffixes.
Usually the hacker will use an Image [email protected] , but the image linking to a hacker site like incometaxindiaefiling.gov.in.info
Thanks for this valuable information.
