If the IRS Contacts You...


Keep your mouth shut-take this advice seriously.
If you give the agents any opening, you're dead.

They'll start with soft background questions, but before you know it, will have trapped you. And many questions won't be genuine-that is, the agents already know the answers and are asking only to see if you will lie or confess.

  • Questions typically asked by agents include:
  • Have you reported all of your income?
  • Where are your bank accounts and safe deposit boxes?
  • Can you tell us about the cars, boats, planes, and real estate that you own?
  • What is the procedure for reporting sales in your business?
  • Do you keep a lot of cash on hand?
  • Who are your business associates?
  • Have you traveled out of the country recently?
  • Have you or any of your businesses been audited?

Faced with a barrage of questions from trained agents who show up unannounced, most people fall apart. They either blurt out a confession or a transparent lie within five minutes. This gives the Justice Department the rope to hang them with.

Don't Let that happen to you.
