W-2 Phishing scam targets tax season / Hilary Tuttle

Sumario: In February, the FBI issued an official warning to businesses about a new form of tax season scam in which fraudsters use social engineering attacks known as business email compromise (BEC) or CEO fraud to target W-2 forms. In the cases submitted to the Internet Crime Complaint Center, attackers spoofed or hacked the email account of a company's high-level executive and sent an email to an employee in a human resources, bookkeeping or auditing function requesting employee W-2 forms.
