Know the Signs of the U.S. Identity Theft, Phishing and Online Scams
Tax-related identity theft occurs when someone uses your Social Security Number to file a tax return and claim a fraudulent tax refund. Be alert to possible tax-related identity theft if you run into the following situations:
1. You get a letter from the IRS inquiring about a suspicious tax return that you did not file before.
2. You can't e-file your tax return because of a duplicate Social Security Number.
3. You get an IRS notice that you owe additional tax or refund offset, or that you have had collection actions taken against you for a year you did not file a tax return.
4. You get a tax transcript that you did not request.
5. IRS records indicate you received wages or other income from an employer you didn't work for.
