Policelogs The editor of this pa- per was greatly agitated for a few minutes yes- terday. When we opened an official looking enve- lope from our congress- man and our eye caught the first few words of the enclosed letter we thought we had the post office sure as shootin'. "Dear Editor, I am send- ing you," the communica- tion read. How our heart thrilled and our blood tingled. Tears coursed down our cheeks as we imagined we could hear the shouts of thousands of grateful patrons of the post office trying to shake our hand. We brushed the tears away and took another look at the letter. Surely the con- gressman was sending us a commission. When the office force picked us up an hour later and pried the letter from our fist, we were barely able to demand a recount. The family physician in look- ing into the case of our collapse read the letter. "Dear Editor, I am send- ing you a quantity of veg- etable seeds." That's the blow that stopped our heart. However, many good things may grow out of a package of garden seed and if we are faithful in discharging this latest trust we are only plac- ing the government un- der greater obligations to us. — Jan. 28, 1915 100 YEARS AGO...

Aggressive and threat- ening phone calls by crim- inals impersonating IRS agents remain near the top of the annual Dirty Dozen list of tax scams for the 2015 filing season, the In- ternal Revenue Service an- nounced this week. The IRS has seen a surge of these phone scams in re- cent months as scam art- ists threaten police arrest, deportation, license revoca- tion and other things. The IRS reminds taxpayers to guard against all sorts of con games that arise dur- ing any filing season. "If someone calls unex- pectedly claiming to be from the IRS with aggres- sive threats if you don't pay immediately, it's a scam artist calling," said IRS Commissioner John Koski- nen. "The first IRS contact with taxpayers is usually through the mail. Taxpay- ers have rights, and this is not how we do business." The Dirty Dozen is com- piled annually by the IRS and lists a variety of com- mon scams taxpayers may encounter any time dur- ing the year. Many of these con games peak during fil- ing season as people pre- pare their tax returns or hire someone to do so. This year for the first time, the IRS will issue the individ- ual Dirty Dozen scams one at a time during the next 12 business days to raise con- sumer awareness. Phone scams top the list this year because it has been a persistent and per- vasive problem for many taxpayersformany months. Scammers are able to alter caller ID numbers to make it look like the IRS is call- ing. They use fake names and bogus IRS badge num- bers. They often leave "ur- gent" callback requests. They prey on the most vul- nerable people, such as the elderly, newly arrived im- migrants and those whose first language is not Eng- lish. Scammers have been known to impersonate agents from IRS Criminal Investigation as well. "These criminals try to scare and shock you into providing personal finan- cial information on the spot while you are off guard," Koskinen said. "Don't be taken in and don't en- gage these people over the phone." Protect yourself The IRS reminds people that they can know pretty easily when a supposed IRS caller is a fake. Here are five things the scam- mers often do but the IRS will not do. Any one of these five things is a tell- tale sign of a scam. The IRS will never call to demand immediate pay- ment, nor will the agency call about taxes owed with- out first having mailed you a bill; demand that you pay taxes without giv- ing you the opportunity to question or appeal the amount they say you owe; require you to use a spe- cific payment method for your taxes, such as a pre- paid debit card; ask for credit or debit card num- bers over the phone or threaten to bring in lo- cal police or other law-en- forcement groups to have you arrested for not pay- ing. If you get a phone call from someone claiming to be from the IRS and ask- ing for money, here's what you should do. If you know you owe taxes or think you might owe, call the IRS at 1-800-829-1040. The IRS workers can help you with a payment issue. If you know you don't owe taxes or have no reason to be- lieve that you do, report the incident to the TIGTA at 1-800-366-4484 or at www.tigta.gov. If you've been targeted by this scam, also contact the Federal Trade Com- mission and use their "FTC Complaint Assis- tant" at FTC.gov. Please add "IRS The IRS does not use email, text messages or any social media to discuss your personal tax issue in- volving bills or refunds.
