Very interesting read there, Bill. that explains the email
from IRS last week or so commanding us ERO's to register
with them any web site we use to obtain tax filing
information from clients. And btw, that deadling was
extended by IRS until September 10th.

It's nice to be able to provide links to mainstream American
media, speaking of which, I notice that NOO YAWK times rag
recently announced no more charges for their web content.
Of course that doesn't mean I'll beat down their door even
for free access. (grin)

ChEAr$,

Default E-filers Fake Tax "Refund" Web Sites Rampant

This blog, from the 'Washington Post' web security expert,
should serve as a caution to E-filers whether or not they
expect a refund.

As noted in the article, it is timely for those who obtained
filing extensions -- as well as for future years.
