Beware of Telephone Scam
The IRS is warning that there is a new telephone scam which is targeting taxpayers, which includes recent immigrants. The scammers are telling taxpayers that they owe money to the IRS and then requesting that wire transfers or pre-loaded debit cards be sent to in order to pay this phony amount they are asking for. The scammers are also threating arrest, deportation, or driver’s or business license suspension.
The IRS will most likely contact you via mail the first time they contact you. If you receive a call like this the best action to take is to call the IRS directly at 800-829-1040 to inquire if there are actually any taxes owed.
