Beware of Tax Scams as Filing Season Begins

Posted by Mike C Posted on Jan 29 2014
The IRS is urging taxpayers to be on the lookout for phone and email scams with perpetrators posing as the IRS. Such scams multiply during this time of year, and taxpayers should be vigilant about communication that is purportedly from the IRS. The IRS does not initiate contact with taxpayers by telephone, letter, email etc., to request personal or financial information, and also does not ask for personal identification numbers (PINs), passwords or similar confidential access information for credit card, bank or other financial accounts.
