I received a letter from the IRS regarding a filed form 940 error. The fax number they sent for me to reply to is a SEX number. How do I report this? Where/how do I get the correct number? I tried calling the number to see if my fax machine miss-dialed. Nope! Has anyone else had this problem? It is a KC letter. Phone number is 855-897-7588.

Sarcastic - - - most of my clients say the IRS is trying to screw them so maybe it's not a bad number........

Ive seen reports of invalid fax and phone numbers on letters from tax pros in other tax groups, so its not unheard of.

Guess youre stuck with mailing your response 🤷‍

But look at the bright side ------------------- folks complain here all of the time that they can't get through to the IRS ---------- sounds like that isn't a problem with that number.😬

How do you know it's a letter from IRS?

If you do a Google search for the number, the first hit is the IRS. I'm guessing phone numbers are like websites. If someone finds a number that has been abandoned that they assume got some regular use, they buy them up. I tried calling the number but Jenny wasn't working today so I hung up.

If they can hack the Pentagon why can't they hack the Verizon switchboard?
