Phishing, the IRS puts prevention in your hands

 
 

IRS cracks down on phishers:

"The Internal Revenue Service has set up an e-mail address for taxpayers to forward suspicious e-mail messages that claim to come from the IRS."

Nice approach, not. This isn't preventative it's reactive. Once the phish email is sent it's already too late. The IRS should think about being preventative with an application like Corillian FDS.
