🚨 GHOST TAX PREPARERS CAN NOW FACE FELONY CHARGES! 🚨
Just because someone knows how to file a tax return doesn’t mean they’re qualified or legally preparing taxes.
👻 What is a ghost tax preparer?
A ghost preparer is someone you paid to prepare your taxes but doesn’t sign the return or include their Preparer Tax Identification Number (PTIN), as required by the IRS.
🚩 RED FLAGS TO WATCH FOR:
❌ They don’t sign your tax return.
❌ They tell you to file the return as if you prepared it yourself.
❌ They promise unusually large refunds.
❌ They make up deductions, expenses, or credits to increase your refund.
❌ They charge fees based on the size of your refund.
💰 HERE’S WHAT EVERY TAXPAYER NEEDS TO KNOW:
Even if someone else prepares your return, YOU are ultimately responsible for what’s filed under your Social Security number.
That means YOU could be responsible for additional taxes, penalties, interest, and audits resulting from a fraudulent return.
Don’t risk your financial future for the promise of a bigger refund.
