The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has released its annual "Dirty Dozen" list of top tax scams for 2024. Typically the IRS releases a new list each year to warn taxpayers and preparers alike of what to watch out for when it comes to scams and data security.
While most preparers stay vigilant about these scams and understand how the IRS properly communicates with clients, our clients can be more susceptible. Our firm received dozens of phone calls last year from clients who were being inundated with ERTC credit claims even though we knew they didn’t qualify.
