My spam filter intercepted three emails allegedly from the IRS telling me that a payment to them had been rejected because of a problem with my employer identification number. I also have been receiving calls and emails from my clients on the same topic.
The IRS does not use email to make initial contacts with taxpayers. These emails are a phishing scam trying to get information from you that can be used to steal your money. Do not respond and do not open any links. You will regret it if you do.
A compendium of tax tidbits and information.

Introduction
I am embarking on a great adventure, blogging. I’m sure it will be fun, frustrating and frantic at times (notice the alliteration, just like the name.) As the title says, this blog is about taxes. Generally it will focus on your relationship with the Internal Revenue Service. I know, you don’t want a relationship with the IRS. Too bad, you have one. The intention is to provide information that might help you save some money on your taxes and could keep you out of jail.
The blog will stray into areas of interest to me, like soccer, my wife, my kids and grandkids. Occasionally it will wander into my opinions but they will be clearly labeled as such. I will even try to make it humorous but remember, I’m a CPA.
I plan on blogging 2 or 3 times a week and encourage your comments and questions. I will be reviewing and editing them if necessary. Write them as if your mother was reading them. Please see my comment policy.
Legal Warning: The information in this blog is as accurate as I can make it. Consult me or your tax professional before using anything posted here on your tax return. Your circumstances may be different than those assumed in the postings. Please see my disclaimer.
