IRS Warns Taxpayers about New Refund Scam
The IRS has alerted
taxpayers of a new scam in which criminals deposit fraudulent tax refunds into
an individual's bank account and then attempt to reclaim the funds. They
accomplish this by (1) hacking tax practitioners' computers to steal taxpayer
data; (2) using the stolen information to file fraudulent tax returns; (3)
having the refunds deposited into the taxpayers' bank accounts; and (4) telling
the victims the money was mistakenly deposited into their accounts and asking
them to return it. Criminals may pose as debt collection agency officials
acting on behalf of the IRS, or the taxpayer may receive an automated call
purportedly from the IRS. The IRS encourages victims of this scam to follow the
procedures outlined in Tax Topic Number 161— Returning an Erroneous Refund.
Also, taxpayers should immediately discuss the issue with their financial
institutions and tax preparers. IRS Tax Tip 2018-32.
