Attempting to acquire sensitive information like usernames, passwords and credit card details via e-mails by a non-trustworthy entity looking similar to legitimate ones is famously known as phishing. At Taxexcise, a responsible web service provider, we wish to make things clear so that our customers do not fall prey to these digital monsters. We DO NOT request or demand our customers to reveal their password or financial information via e-mails or any social media tools. The following is a template of what we have never done before and we would never experiment in future as well.
