Protect Your Identity During Tax Season
- Avoid tax identity theft by completing your tax return early. If a cybercriminal obtains your SSN, they may try to submit a phony tax return before you do. Stay one step ahead by submitting your taxes ASAP.
- If you think you’ve become a target or victim of tax identity theft, the IRS and Federal Trade Comission have resources available.
- To commit tax identity theft, fraudsters may demand immediate payment, ask for your financial information or use threatening language. If you receive an email, call or text that uses such methods, ignore it.
- Keep your devices password-protected, don’t click on suspicious links and only access your accounts through private Wi-Fi.
- Watch your bank accounts carefully during tax season and contact us immediately if you notice any suspicious activity.
Thank you for choosing Central Bank!
We look forward to serving you in 2021.
