You can help fight IRS impersonator scams. The Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA) is alerting taxpayers about scammers claiming to be from the IRS. These criminals tell victims they owe unpaid tax and threaten them with arrest or other consequences if the victims don’t send money. Scammers may also ask for personal information, which may then be used to commit identity theft. By March 31, 2022, victims had lost $85 million to these scams, which TIGTA reports have claimed victims in every state. The best advice is “just hang up.” You can learn more and also report information about IRS impersonator scams here: https://bit.ly/3HpqBAV © 2022
