Citing Tax Fraud Spike, TurboTax Suspends State E-Filings Krebs on Security

TurboTax owner Intuit temporarily suspends transmission of state e-filing tax returns in response to a surge in complaints. Cyber thieves have long sought stolen credentials for hijacked tax preparation accounts at TurboTax, H&R Block and related services. This action does not affect the filing of federal income tax returns, and is limited to those states that require residents to file returns. I have no doubt we are seeing even more phony tax refund claims than last year (in which my own taxes were filed fraudulently)”]
