Connecticut residents should be on the lookout for a new email phishing scam now circulating that targets Department of Defense military members, retirees and civilian employees, the IRS warned.
The email appears to come from Defense Finance and Accounting Services and displays a .mil email address.
The message states that that those receiving disability compensation from the Department of Veterans Affairs may be able to obtain additional funds from the IRS.
People are then asked to send documents containing their personal and financial information, such as copies of VA award letters and their income tax returns, to an address in Florida.
