The agency has received reports of emails mimicking the style and elements of official correspondence from the State Tax Service, with the subject line ‘Circular on updated rules for auditing tax returns’. The messages are sent from the address [email protected], which does not belong to the State Tax Service.

The State Tax Service clarifies that it has not sent these messages, and the attached documents are not official documents of the agency. They constitute an attempt to mislead recipients and may be intended to infect devices or obtain data without authorisation.

In light of this, the agency recommends that you do not open any documents attached to such messages, do not enter any passwords or other details requested to access the files, do not click on any suspicious links, and do not reply to such messages; you should also carefully check the sender’s email address and refrain from forwarding the messages to others.

In other words, ignore such messages and report them immediately to the police, as well as to the State Tax Service or other authorised bodies.

You should also verify any information on the tax authority’s official website, www.sfs.md, and on the organisation’s official social media pages.
