Some phishing e-mails contain software that can harm your computer or track your activities on the internet without your knowledge. Anti-virus and Anti-spyware software and firewall can protect you from inadvertently accepting such unwanted files."
Encouraging tax-payers to report phishing mails, the I-T Department said, "If you receive a phishing mail not pertaining to the Income Tax Department, forward the same to incident@cert-in.org.in."
"If you receive an e-mail or find a website you think is pretending to be of Income Tax Department, forward the e-mail or website URL to webmanager@incometax.gov.in. A copy may also be forwarded to incident@cert-in.org.in," it added.
