IRS Telephone Scam

 No doubt, we all have a measure of respect for the IRS regardless of any personal feelings. However, if you ever get a call from the IRS, hang up.

Hearing a voice on the other end of the phone claiming to be the IRS can send chills up the average person’s spine. If you get the call, tell the caller that you don’t do IRS transactions over the phone. Ask them to send you any relevant information in the mail. Don’t give your out mailing address. If they were legitimate, they would already have it.

You have to be strong in your resolve. Some people actually cave into the scammers’ demands and send hard-earned cash.

​Realizing that the IRS doesn’t sue people is a good start for protecting your money and assets.
