IRS Warns of New Scam Involving Bogus Student Tax
by MICHAEL COHN
The Internal Revenue Service issued a new warning Friday to taxpayers about bogus phone calls from IRS impersonators demanding payment for a non-existent tax that they call the “federal student tax.”
Even though the tax deadline has come and gone, the IRS noted that scammers continue to use varied strategies to trick people, in this case students. In this newest twist, they try to convince people to wire money immediately to the scammer. If the victim does not fall quickly enough for this fake “federal student tax,” the scammer threatens to report the student to the police.

The IRS reports that a number of tax professionals, IRS employees, and others are receiving emails purported to be from the “IRS Office of Professional

The subject line contains “Acquire new EIN.” The text instructs the recipient to obtain a new “EIN” (Employer Identification Number) in connection with fraudulent actions on their behalf. A link is provided for detailed instructions.
