More spam.. Be aware.

There is a spam email going around purporting to be from the IRS and claiming that the recipient's tax return could not be processed. Other variations include notification that a payment has been declined.

The IRS will never email you like this, so please don't click any of the links or attachments in the message and delete it immediately.

A sample of the email type is shown below........
