Californians should remain vigilant against tax scams this season.
Californians are urged to stay vigilant against tax scams as the California Franchise Tax Board warns about fraudulent text messages impersonating the agency. These scams aim to steal personal and financial information by directing users to fake websites. Taxpayers are encouraged to verify communications claiming to be from tax authorities and to utilize the FTB’s resources to report suspicious activity and protect their sensitive data during this busy filing season.
Hey there, California! It’s that time of the year again – tax season! While many of us are busy gathering documents and crunching numbers, there’s a sneaky little issue lurking in the shadows that all taxpayers need to be aware of. The California Franchise Tax Board (FTB) has issued a warning about a nasty text message scam that’s targeting your personal information. Yikes!
The FTB has seen an uptick in scams that go after taxpayers, especially during this particularly hectic time of year. Scammers are trying to impersonate the FTB, sending out fraudulent text messages that look like they’re from the real deal. These texts often contain links that take you to a fake version of an FTB webpage, designed specifically to steal your sensitive personal and banking information. Talk about shady!
