3. For many, the IRS is a scary entity, which
makes some people susceptible to scams.
Every year, people or groups posing as the
IRS steal thousands of dollars from innocent
victims. According to the IRS, the most
common scams are identity theft, phone
scams, phishing (fake IRS websites or e-
mails), false free money scams, preparer
fraud, hiding offshore income, and bogus
charities.
4. In most cases, victims are lured into believing
that they will face legal repercussions if they
do not pay. The best way to avoid scams is to
keep personal information as secure as
possible and find a tax preparer that is
trustworthy. In addition, according to IRS
spokesman Eric Smith, consumers should
know that the IRS never makes initial contact
by phone or e-mail. A random e-mail or
phone call from someone saying they’re from
the IRS is most likely fraud.
