Tax season is a busy time for fraudsters—so let’s stay one step ahead.
Remember, the IRS will not call, text, email, or message you on social media demanding immediate payment or personal information.
Be cautious of:
• Urgent or threatening language (“Pay now or you’ll be arrested”)
• Requests for gift cards, wire transfers, or cryptocurrency
• Emails or texts with suspicious links or attachments
• Calls asking to “verify” your Social Security number or bank details
Always verify before you respond. Go directly to official websites, never click unexpected links, and don’t share personal information unless you’re certain who you’re speaking with.
If you notice unusual activity or think you’ve been targeted, contact us right away. We’re here to help protect your accounts and your peace of mind.
