BITCOINERS: DO NOT SCAN THIS QR CODE

The IRS is warning that scammers are mailing fake, official-looking IRS letters to cryptocurrency holders directing them to a bogus “Digital Asset Compliance Portal.”

The letters include a QR code leading to a fake IRS website that may ask for personal information, wallet details, exchange credentials or other sensitive data.

The IRS says it does not operate a “Digital Asset Compliance Portal” and did not send these letters.

Coinbase and DarkTower reportedly traced infrastructure behind the campaign to a recently registered domain hosted in Romania.

If you receive one, do not scan the QR code or provide any information.

Was probably the IRS that sold the data in the first place.
