Evelyn receives an email that claims to be from the IRS, the United States Internal Revenue Service. The email states that their tax refund is ready and includes an attachment labeled "taxrefund.doc".
Evelyn is eager for their refund but worried the email is a phishing scam.
What is the safest next step?
Evelyn can download the attachment, send it through their antivirus software, and confirm that it has no malware inside it. Then they can safely open it.
Evelyn can open the attachment from their mobile phone instead of from their personal computer, since the mobile phone is more malware-proof.
Evelyn can find the official IRS website by searching the Web and contact IRS through a listed email address to inquire about the email.
