We get these every month of two, It's usually asking us to pay an invoice and when you look further on the "invoice" the money is to be addressed somewhere in the Republic of Ireland... We actually had a really good one a few months ago they actually used one of our customers names and full address (University of Ottawa) along with a product we would actually have dealings with but the payment was to be sent to an address in British Columbia, so I googled the address and it was a residential house. Long story short I called Canadian Anti Fraud Centre as well as the University of Ottawa have not heard anything from BC again lol. Speaking of there is another one going around in Canada now regarding the new copyright laws in Canada and they send you a letter saying you have infringed their copyright and you must pay a fee of $ XX or they are going to sue you to the tune of $100,000.

Ha! All you have to keep in mind is this:
The IRS will never email you or call you.
They will send certified or registered mail.
Same with the FBI. Most likely they (FBI) will find you in person.
(Just asked my boyfriend, he's an FBI agent.)
If someone is contacting you impersonating an FBI agent, you should contact your local branch and let them know what's going on.


Never EVER open a link from an email like that. At the vesy least, it's a virus, worst, it could allow them remote access to your computer.
(As explained to me by an IT professional.)
