NEW DELHI, Jan 15 (PTI): The I-T department has asked tax payers not to give out personal details like PAN card number and information about their credit cards on the internet in the wake of mushrooming fake e-mails hitting users’ inboxes.
Viewing with concern the spurt in fictitious and unauthorised e-mails landing in personal internet addresses of many people, the department is adding a word of ‘caution’ at the end of each mail sent by them.
“A number of tax payers have received e-mails with subjects like “tax refund” and “seeking refunds” prompting us to take such measures. Such messages continue to land in big numbers in individual e-mails,” a senior I-T department official said.
