Scam??

Carolyn from Alicetown

I was emailed a form from Inland Revenue (an application for a refund of $800) It required ID details but didn't specify which person it was intended for. It gave an example of place of birth as Ela, UK. Our family shares the same email. It was signed off as Sincerely, Inland Revenue, no other signature. It had a padlock sign on the right side of the letter. I know that there are changes that IRD are making but this didn't look legit, although it was grammatically correct and a good imitation of the letter heading.
