Inspector General: IRS identified 1.1 million cases of The Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA) issued a report Tuesday which found the IRS had identified 1.1 million cases of employment-related identity theft since 2011 but failed to notify the victims. As the IG’s press release makes clear, TIGTA pointed out this same problem to the IRS in a previous audit:

Why is the IRS so hesitant to deal with this problem? Because most of the people committing the identity theft are illegal immigrants.

The IRS has become nothing but a weapon for the White House and the DNC to use to attack their enemies and protect their agenda.

There are no telling how many Jose Garcias, US citizens with one valid SSN, working all over the country at the same time. That’s how they beat e-verify. Thr IRS doesn’t do anything about that either.

Our government (BOTH PARTIES) is helping fraudulently documented foreigners rip off America and Americans.

That POS Koskenin stated that as long as the IRS gets the tax revenue they don't care at all about the theft and use of stolen SS numbers. He said something to that effect back in April at a committee hearing to Congress. Koskinen needs to be impeached and charged with criminal misconduct at the very least.

Here is just a sample of the Obama snake Koskinen from that hearing. There are many more vids of this hearing on youtube as well as the entire Koskinen appearance. It will make you sick to listen to this asshole.

The IRS Controls ObamaCARE and their own military.
They backdate fake docs to send
US money to terrorists,
and lie to Congress like Obama urinates on the Constitution.

Yes. 

Identity theft = serious fines, jail, and automatic deportation.

I would like to see him going for serious privacy laws = good for us, bad for Google and devastating for Facebook!

As far as I know, neither elected and appointed politician nor public employees are immune to RICO prosecutions.

If this conspiracy is not a RICO issue, I don't know what is.

MY ID was stolen had to stand in line at SS office forever and the SS lady that helped me (and filled me in on finding out where the IA was employed on my SS#) told me she also had her ID stolen. THIS is the CRIME that will help get more NICE ones exited.

They stopped issuing the no match Letters I heard. We need that so that victims could sue employers for negligence. Victims of ID theft should be permitted a negligence Tort and receive damages not to exceed 20K. Do u think the idea of a random hit by a trial lawyer in search of opportunities may not slow down hiring?

That reminds me.
Where do we demand to know the statistics of the spread of the ZIKA virus attributable to illegal aliens?
AKA "undocumented criminals" or anchor babies...

A government's most important job is the protection of its Citizens.

No ands, ifs, buts or howevers...

If you can't do that, resign your elected position, or just go away.

My experience was that the IRS Atlanta office caught the theft of my SSN & notified me about the theft. The California IRS office sent me a demand notice for the thief’s Federal taxes.

One of the victims here.
Only found out when I filed and they told me I had already gotten a big refund (NOT!).
Took a year to clear it up, and the burden of proof was on me!
