always wondered how this works. I assume the criminal makes up figures to get a return, right? How do they get the money and get away with it? How is the return even accepted without supporting evidence?


Claim them as a dependent and then get the write off? No clue how often they actually get away with it.

Using it for dependent purposes is my understanding too. IRS won't even talk with her until she has a police report. Sheriff's office says that could take up to 5 days. So far nothing out of place is showing up at the bank or on credit cards. Not saying the number couldn't be sold to someone else that might use it for other reasons in the future.

This should make it extremely easy to catch.
