cred65 Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 I just received an email from a high roller client on extension that the IRS has notified him that someone has attempted to file a return under his name & SS#. He spent 2 hours with IRS TAC. more to follow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee B Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 Be very careful. If he was contacted by phone, it might be a scam ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnH Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 (edited) If the initial contact was by phone, it was definitely a scam. In the past month, I've been contacted by two scammers by phone. I also learned that three of my clients had received calls which they did not return, and one elderly couple this week had visited their bank after receiving a call. Luckily, the banker told them to speak with me before taking any action. Edited April 25, 2015 by jklcpa 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
