It’s not the Tax Office that asks about such things. Strange e-mails are arriving in inboxes

If you want, there is always a new way to cheat. This time, criminals have real use and decided to use the new e-Invoice 2.0 system, KSeF. No wonder, whenever we introduce new products of this type, we are faced with confusion, which fraudsters will always try to take advantage of. This is when it is easy to make a mistake and consider a fake email to be real. Fraudsters know this perfectly well and without any hesitation, they pretend to be the Tax Office and send “Notifications from the Head of the Tax Office” to random recipients. This is a type of control of the introduced system, which increases the credibility of the message. In the content of the e-mail, fraudsters most often ask about the level of preparation for KSEF.

Fraudsters impersonating tax offices send fake e-mails with attachments. They try to extort confidential information, such as personal data, bank account numbers, as well as e-mail addresses and passwords.

However, the Ministry of Finance advises you to always check the e-mail addresses from which e-mails regarding KSeF are sent. This is not at all easy to spot at first glance. Most often, these addresses differ by one letter from the real ones. These messages most often inform about the need to verify readiness for KSeF or talk about alleged errors. Regardless of the content, they have one thing in common – they persuade you to click a link or open an attachment. It is better to avoid these types of emails.
