1. The IRS knows our social security numbers don't give them out over the phone even if someone calls talking about the Bush refunds! and the IRS.
  2. This is identity theft that can be easily avoided.
  3. It seems the bad guys are trying to divert money from people who are deserving of it.
  4. If we publish this information perhaps there will be a few unsuspecting and perhaps susceptible people who won't just blurt out their personal information.
  5. You can make a difference if you talk to your community on this topic.
  6. I will include a link to the Texas State's attorney's letter that was received by our office. IRS SCAM ALERT!
  7. You may want to check with your State Attorney General for their thoughts on your area.

So if you know someone who might not be as cautious as you are; perhaps a call would be well placed-as soon as possible! I am glad to work with people who care this much!

Good advice Doris. Never give out your social security number. The ID thieves want to take that and run with it.
