imjulier Posted April 12, 2012 Report Posted April 12, 2012 Had two cleints in the last 2 days questions the security of e-filing since there was a news story about it. One said that it was unsafe to have refunds automatically deposited and one said e-file itself was not secure. They both said it was a news story they had seen which is why they were asking. Anyone see that story or heard of any identity theft from e-filing or problems with ATX in particular? Julie Quote

HV Ken Posted April 13, 2012 Report Posted April 13, 2012 There has been a tremendous amount of problems with Identify Theft, especially in Florida. But that is not specific to e-file nor its security. One of our clients had a fraudulent return filed with his social security number. Today's thieves are unfortunately very sophisticated. :mad: Quote
