Educational Tax Tip: How the IRS Contacts You—And How They Don’t

Have you ever received a call from someone claiming to be the IRS? Don’t panic! The IRS does not initiate contact by phone, text, or email to demand payment or personal information—such scams are on the IRS’s Dirty Dozen list of common frauds. The IRS typically communicates through official letters first, but in certain cases, such as audits or overdue tax bills, they may call or visit after sending notices. If you receive a suspicious call claiming to be from the IRS, do not provide any information—hang up and report it to the IRS or the Federal Trade Commission.
