The US Tax Court has received reports about an e-mail allegedly sent by a member of the Tax Court’s practitioner bar. This is NOT a legitimate email. If you do not have a case pending before the US Tax Court, the Court will not contact you via email.
The Tax Court has advised that if you receive an e-mail with a subject line that includes the text, “Notice of Deficiency #” followed by a series of numbers or “US Tax Petition”, along with a malformed docket number following the format #000-000, and a sender address of noreply@ustaxcourt.org, complaints@ustaxcourt.org, or notice@ustaxcourt.org, delete the e-mail and do not click any link in the email.
