I wanted to touch on a marketing letter a taxpayer received when I was an RO. They called me because they thought it came from the IRS. I received a copy and discovered it was a marketing letter from a tax resolution firm.
It looked like it was being sent from a taxing authority (IRS, state, city,etc). With closer inspection I could tell ot was a marketing letter. What disturbed me about it was that it sounded like if you did not call them immediately they would be thrown in jail and other nasty stuff.
Just saying be careful when looking at that kind of stuff. I am not saying they were not a reputable company. Just their marketing through scare tactics should be reported to the representative you are using or the Revenue Officer/Agent you are working with.
