Once identity thieves have your personal information, they can drain your bank account, run up charges on your credit cards, open new utility accounts, or get medical treatments on your health insurance.<\/p><p>An identity thief may even file a tax return in your name to get a refund.<\/p><h5><strong>TAX FRAUD LEADING THE WAY<\/strong><\/h5><p>In fact, tax related identity theft is the second most common type of identity theft. It involves fraudsters getting access to your personal information, which is then used to file a tax return and get a refund under your name.<\/p><p>David still remembers the day he was alerted by the CWA tax team that his client\u2019s tax return was rejected by the IRS. After some investigating, they discovered a fraudster had previously filed his client\u2019s tax return in hopes of getting a refund.<\/p><p>\u201cWhen I called to inform my client of the situation, he was blindsided, to say the least,\u201d David recalls. \u201cI advised him that now was the time to channel these feelings and use them to take back control of the situation, to get proactive in countering the fraudster.\u201d<\/p><h5><strong>ACT QUICKLY TO MINIMIZE IMPACT <\/strong><\/h5><p>David was able to help guide his client through a reporting and recovery process to ensure that the fraudster was not able to do any more damage.<\/p><p>Setting things straight involves some work. If you suspect that someone has stolen your identity, acting quickly is the best way to limit the damage.<\/p><p>David suggests taxpayers follow these steps:<\/p><ol><li>Obtain a copy of your credit report and look through to see if any entries are wrong. If so, report them to the credit bureaus.<\/li><li>Contact the Fraud Department of the three major credit bureaus and place a fraud alert on your credit report. This can be done online or by telephone with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.equifax.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #33cccc;\">Equifax<\/span><\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.experian.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #33cccc;\">Experian<\/span><\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.transunion.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #33cccc;\">TransUnion<\/span><\/a>.<\/li><li>File an identity theft report with your local police department.<\/li><li>Report and create an Identity Theft Report with the FTC.<\/li><li>Obtain a copy of your IRS \u201cRecord of Account Transcript.\u201d <a href=\"http:\/\/www.irs.gov\/individuals\/get-transcript\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #33cccc;\">This is done online<\/span><\/a>. Email a copy of this report to your financial advisor.<\/li><li>Contact all investment companies that you have working as brokerage firms. Your financial advisor may also be able to guide you on this.<\/li><\/ol><h5><strong>PREVENTION <\/strong><\/h5><p>You use your personal data to perform a myriad of tasks every day, and although this data is usually encrypted, that doesn&#8217;t mean it\u2019s completely secure.<\/p><p>Although 100% prevention is impossible, there are some things you can do to reduce the chances of this happening to you. Keep financial records under lock and key and don\u2019t keep sensitive information (like your Social Security or Medicare card) on you.<\/p><p>Take outgoing mail to a post office or a collection box versus your personal mailbox, especially if you are going on trip.<\/p><p>Never provide any personal information in response to an unsolicited phone call, email, social media message\u00a0or text message.\u00a0The IRS has been very clear: they will <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cainwatters.com\/digitalblogs\/steps-contacted-by-irs\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: #33cccc;\">not contact consumers using these methods,<\/span><\/a> and will not threaten legal action.<\/p><p>Most importantly, David advises his clients to exercise their curiosity. Before you share information at the workplace, business, kids&#8217; school, or doctor\u2019s office, ask who will have access to your information, how it will be handled, and how will it be disposed of.<\/p><p>In the case of David\u2019s client, his story ended well; because it was caught early, it resulted in no financial loss.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"has_ae_slider elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-794b5d5f elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default ae-bg-gallery-type-default\" data-id=\"794b5d5f\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-no\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"has_ae_slider elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-29e5d583 blue-box ae-bg-gallery-type-default\" data-id=\"29e5d583\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-79df93cb elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"79df93cb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tMonitoring your financial life is an important part of prevention but having a financial and tax advisor on your team can help to alert you of signals that something is wrong. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cainwatters.com\/contact\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;
