Beware of ID thieves this shopping season

The Internal Revenue Service, the Rhode Island Division of Taxation, and other partners in the Security Summit today urged taxpayers to take extra steps during this holiday shopping season to protect their tax and financial data from identity thieves. (Click here for the announcement.)

The appeal came as the Security Summit kicked off National Tax Security Awareness Week. In Rhode Island, Tax Administrator Neena Savage and Attorney General Peter Kilmartin helped launch the start of National Tax Security Awareness Week by taking part in a news conference in Cranston co-hosted by the IRS and the Rhode Island Society of Certified Public Accountants.
