    You sure it's not from your congressman?
    There is no genuine justice in any scheme of feeding and coddling the loafer whose only ponderable energies are devoted wholly to reproduction. Nine-tenths of the rights he bellows for are really privileges and he does nothing to deserve them. We not only acquired a vast population of morons, we have inculcated all morons, old or young, with the doctrine that the decent and industrious people of the country are bound to support them for all time.-Menkin

    I'm sure it's either a virus that steals personal information or a scam to getyou to send them personal info. You should not have opened it.

    This is a Tax scam, the IRS does not solicit for information like this.

    Hey Ryan, "guys" implied I didn't read his post. My post merely points out that it's a scam. No advice or disclaimer was given.

    By "open" I was meaning the link in the email...

    And he also already said (or alluded to) that it was fake.
