What Not to Report to the OIG Hotline
Note: IRS (Internal Revenue Service) related Phishing and Online Scams should be reported directly to the IRS, using the link below: https://www.irs.gov/uac/report-phishing The IRS doesn't initiate contact with taxpayers by email, text messages or social media channels to request personal or financial information. This includes requests for PIN numbers, passwords or similar access information for credit cards, banks or other financial accounts. Phishing is a scam typically carried out through unsolicited email and/or websites that pose as legitimate sites and lure unsuspecting victims to provide personal and financial information.
