||| FROM JIM BIDDICK |||


As you all know, I have been doing taxes at the Senior Centers for free for a number of years.

These last few days I have gotten calls from clients saying they got a letter from the IRS saying they have a credit coming and to contact the following number. I have gone back two years on some of the returns and cannot find a number that matches the amount in the letter.

I suspect that this is a scam and if the person calls the number they will be asked to give their bank account number to receive the credit. 

I can’t find anything online that refers to this scam so it might be a new one that is going around.
