ZeuS-Related Fake Electronic Tax Payment Emails Are Back

Security researchers warn of a new wave of fake Electronic Federal Tax Payment System (EFTPS) emails directing users to drive-by download websites that distribute the ZeuS banking trojan.

The fake emails claim the recipient's electronic tax payment was rejected due to a error in the submission form. They read:

"Your Federal Tax Payment ID: ######## has been rejected. [where # is a digit]

Return Reason Code R21 - The identification number used in the Company Identification Field is not valid.
