Eight Tips to Protect Taxpayers from Identity Theft

Hi All,

Long-time readers know that I have a 'thing' for identity theft and how to prevent identity theft. I think its pretty important for people to know about.  And I get to write about it every so often on this blog. Especially when a new article appears that it crisp, concise, and well well-written.  The fact that the article comes from a very reputable source is an added bonus! 

What article am I talking aout?  The IRS (reputable for sure!) published an article titled 'IRS Summertime Tax Tip 2017-16 on August 7th - just a few days ago. 

The article - which is mercifully brief but chock filled with information - discusses protection personal and financial records, reporting tax-related id theft (this is the IRS after all), using PIN number and special section that the IRS has to assist victims of identity theft.  Click here for that additional special section link!

Click on this link to find out how IRS Identity Theft Victim Assistance Works. 

Finally, I used this link to have e-News Subscriptions from the IRS emailed to me.  That's where I found these identity theft tips that I discussed in today's blog entry.  Subscribing is easy and you can unsubscribe at any time.

Enjoy the links and hopefully you'll never have to use them!

Regards,
Stu
