ILLMAS Posted December 14, 2020 Report Share Posted December 14, 2020 Now that the IRS has outsourced to a third party collections agency, today was the first time I have ever seen a letter from one of the companies, but it's kind of weird since the TP is on a payment plan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This does not pass the smell test. I have received dozens of these letters and do not recall that they requested calling the IRS. If the TP has not defaulted on his payments, I would ignore it, anyway, even if legit. There are 4 companies that are outsourced and you can check their phone numbers here - https://www.irs.gov/businesses/small-businesses-self-employed/private-debt-collection 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually ONLY ask the taxpayer to call the IRS. I don't suggest to call the possible scammers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
