Did Turbo Tax have a calculation error in 2020? I just receive an email from Intuit Turbo Tax and not sure it is a scam?

What specifically did the email indicate?  We do not get copies of the email sent by TurboTax so if you could explain the message you received we should be able to advise you.

Also, what is the senders email address?
