Iowa Attorney General Brenna Bird announced tips this week to protect Iowans from tax and IRS scams during the 2025 tax filing season.
Common tax scams include phone/imposter scams, identity theft, and tax preparer fraud.
To protect against tax scams, Iowans should watch out for demands and threats, avoid pressure to act quickly, thoroughly research tax preparers, never share personal or financial information over the phone or email, and know the right way to pay.
Report suspected tax fraud or scams by contacting the Iowa Attorney General’s office at 1-888-777-45-90.
