Tax Scam Tip - Tax Preparer Email Fraud

Tax fraud is an increasing danger for all of us. Protect yourself through knowledge!

Today's tax scam tip: Beware of emails claiming to be from a tax preparer (even a name or company you recognize and use) that requests you respond and provide personal identity-related information. Such requests might be to confirm your social security number, bank account numbers, address, etc.

If you receive such an email, do not directly respond to the email. A reputable tax firm will not request such email through channels such as non-secured, unencrypted email. Call your tax preparer directly to notify them you received such an email and delete the email.

For any questions regarding your tax situation or tax preparation needs, please give us a call or schedule a complimentary consultation. We're here to help!
