It's taxing times as we get close to tax day. But it can only gets worse when incorrect or false information is provided to only scam you out of a refund.
Unscrupulous tax form preparers tell customers that if they're due a refund of more than $600 they have to repay the stimulus money they received last year.

But they deduct the money before handing over your refund.
The solution: Use only reputable firms and individuals for your tax returns.
Don't be lured to others by low fees or promises of big refunds.
