Messages promised faster tax refunds if I “verified” details on a site. I ignored them. What official habits do people use in tax season?
Tax season messages promising faster refunds

Start from the official tax agency site you already know. Unsolicited refund urgency is a classic bait.
I do not send codes or photos of IDs to anyone who contacted me first.
If you already interacted, consider credit freezes via official bureaus and watch accounts — details stay offline.
