MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. – Feb. 6, 2015 – Intuit
Inc. today announced it is working with state agencies to address growing
concerns over state tax fraud. During this tax season, Intuit and some states
have seen an increase in suspicious filings and attempts by criminals to use
stolen identity information to file fraudulent state tax returns and claim tax
refunds.
To assist
any customers who believe they are victims of tax fraud, Intuit has implemented
a plan that includes a dedicated toll-free number, 800-944-8596, with direct access
to specially trained identity protection agents who will provide comprehensive
support and filing assistance. In addition, Intuit will provide identity
protection services and free credit monitoring, as well as provide access to
all versions of its software or to the assistance of one of Intuit’s
credentialed tax experts who will prepare taxes for affected customers at no
expense.
