Bottom line: this number is almost certainly being used for fraudulent schemes that impersonate the IRS and push malicious links. Callers spoof legitimate prefixes to lend credibility, then try to extract personal data or install browser‑based malware. Never click any link or download attachments from unexpected texts, and avoid providing tax‑identifying information unless you initiated contact through official IRS channels. If you receive a security code you didn’t request, treat it as a red flag and report the incident to the FTC or your phone carrier. Consider blocking the number and enabling spam‑filter features on your device and keep your software updated.
Malicious scripts can be installed into your browser through redirects from links in these types of texts, potentially leading to keyloggers or trackers that monitor keyboard presses and visited websites, with the stolen data being sent to scammers.
Evidently, this is an IRS scam involving a security code for IRS filing and unusual posts about movie stars, which was not engaged with.
