What is something special that happened to you recently?

I received a letter and refund slip from the National Tax Agency yesterday. The other day, an official called me to tell me that I had wrongly paid more taxes online. He wanted to know my banking account, but I didn't tell him because I thought he was a scammer. It's no wonder that I doubted him. Bureaucrats are famous for their written form principles. There's no way that bureaucrats ask citizens about personal information on the phone. I was going to tell the police, but I forgot that.

1. & 2. Rephrase to make the meaning clearer.
It's good that you were cautious about providing personal information over the phone. Scammers can be quite convincing, so it's always wise to verify their identity and intentions. Have you checked the letter and refund slip from the National Tax Agency to confirm that it's legitimate?

I must go to a postal office to receive money using the slip. Then, I will know whether it's genuine.

1. You can also say "legitimate."
That sounds like a good plan. Verifying the authenticity of the refund slip at the postal office is definitely a wise step to take. What are you going to do next after verifying its authenticity?

The slip allows only the postal office to refund, so I will receive the tax refund there. I was terrified when I got a call because he knew how much I paid taxes. I was also worried about the leak of personal information. After hanging up the call, I asked an official at a tax office on the phone whether they ask the citizens about banking account numbers. She answered, "Never." I decided not to believe the goverment easily.

1. "the" is a definite article used when referring to something specific.
2. Use "in" to further elaborate on what you're talking about.
