<br />Secure Your Tax Records from Identity Theft
<br />Identity theft occurs when someone uses your personal information such as your
<br />name, social security number (SSN), or other identifying information, without your
<br />permission, to commit fraud or other crimes. An identity thief may use your SSN to
<br />get a lob or may file a tax return using your SSN to receive a refund.
<br />To reduce your risk:
<br />• Protect your SSN,
<br />• Ensure your employer is protecting your SSN, and
<br />• Be careful when choosing a tax preparer.
<br />If your tax records are affected by Identity theft and you receive a notice from
<br />the IRS, respond right away to the name and phone number printed on the IRS
<br />notice or letter.
<br />If your tax records are not currently affected by identity theft but you think you
<br />are at risk due to a lost or stolen puree or wallet, questionable credit card activity
<br />or credit report, contact the IRS Identity Theft Hotline at 1- 800 - 908 -4490 or submit
<br />Form 14039.
<br />For more information, see Publication 4535, Identity Theft Prevention and Victim
<br />Assistance.
<br />Victims of identity theft who are experiencing economic harm or a system
<br />problem, or are seeking help in resolving tax problems that have not been resolved
<br />through normal channels, may be eligible for Taxpayer Advocate Service (TAB)
<br />assistance. You can reach TAB by calling the TAB toll -free case intake line at
<br />1- 877 - 777 -4778 or TTY/TDD 1- 800 -829 -4059.
<br />Protect yourself from suspicious smalls or phlshing schemes. Finishing Is the
<br />creation and use of email and websites designed to mimic legitimate business
<br />smalls and websites. The most common act is sending an email to a user falsely
<br />claiming to be an established legitimate enterprise in an attempt to scam the user
<br />Into surrendering private information that will be used for identity theft.
<br />The IRS does not initiate contacts with taxpayers via emails. Also, the IRS does
<br />not request personal detailed information through small or ask taxpayers for the
<br />PIN numbers, passwords, or similar secret access information for their credit card,
<br />bank, or other financial accounts.
<br />If you receive an unsolicited email claiming to be from the IRS, forward this
<br />message to phishing @irs.gov. You may also report misuse of the IRS name, logo,
<br />or other IRS property to the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration at
<br />1 -800- 366 -4484. You can forward suspicious smalls to the Federal Trade
