Payroll & HR Professionals Beware: IRS alerts of Phishing Scheme
A new phishing email scheme that purports to be from company executives and requests personal information on employees was identified by the IRS.

The "CEO" sends an email to payroll or HR and requests a list of employees and information including social security numbers. For more information on this scheme, click here.
