From SPEC Public Affairs:

Background: We recently became aware that some SPEC partners received emails claiming to be from Frank Nolden. The emails reportedly include a zip attachment and state: “Please see attached for your scanned document. Archive Pass 4937”

Please note that these emails are fraudulent. They were not sent by Frank.

Action:  If you receive this or similar emails, you should not open the attachment. As always, IRS employees and partners should carefully verify that emails are sent by legitimate sources (for example, senders with an actual @irs.gov email address) before opening any attachments or clicking on any links.
