Oregon Dept. of Revenue addresses scam
SALEM — The Oregon
Department of Revenue has
identified inconsistencies in
recently-filed state tax returns
prepared with third-party tax
preparation software, indicat-
ing potential fraudulent activi-
ty.
However, this is just one of
many scams detected and
stopped this filing season by
the state’s tax administration
agency.
“Fraudulent attempts are on
the rise and we’re working to
stop fraud where we find it,”
explained the department's
director, Jim Bucholz.
Bucholz attributes the cur-
rent detection of fraudulent
attempts to the business rules
and processes in use by the
department.
The characteristics of this
specific fraud have been incor-
porated into these business
rules. No department systems
have been breached and tax-
payer information on file with
the department has not been
compromised during this cur-
rent situation, Bucholz said.
Staff are reviewing and veri-
fying the validity of a number
of returns. The department may
contact victims of identity
theft. The department is work-
ing with TurboTax-developer
Intuit to determine the extent
of the impact on Oregon tax-
payers.
“If we can identify victims
of fraud early, it’s easier for us
to help them,” Bucholz said.
If you’ve received notifica-
tion that a tax return has
already been filed on your
behalf when you try to file
your state return, contact your
third-party tax preparation
software vendor.
Intuit, the vendor for
TurboTax, has set up a dedicat-
ed hotline for its users at
1-800-944-8596.
Visit www.oregon.gov/dor
to get tax forms, check the sta-
tus of your refund, or make tax
payments; or call 1-800-356-
4222 toll-free from an Oregon
prefix (English or Spanish);
503-378-4988 in Salem and
outside Oregon; or email,
questions.dor@oregon.gov.
For TTY (hearing or speech
impaired), call 1-800-886-
7204.
Theft was reported in the 1200
block of 10th Street.
Assault was reported in the 1900
block of 31st Street.
