SARS Tax Refund Scam
Just got this from (apparently) a SARS representative:
The attached screenshot of IE was included in the email. Now this imediately looks like a scam (due to that wierdly combined address). I.e. the www.sars.co.za is part of a parameter to another web site. So it looks like some form of phising. Also asking for "Card pin" WTF? No bloody way!WARNING FROM SARS
Please be alert and alert others
“Emails received by taxpayer from an address refund@sars.gov.za with the subject line “Tax Refund” should immediately be regarded as a scam and IGNORED by taxpayers. Taxpayers must NOT provide their banking details as requested in the email.”
