Call me crazy but I think it's a bad idea to do your taxes this early. I've gotten so many amended forms over the years that eat up so much time filing amended returns that I wait until the last minute now.

Dude insisted I was the one who initiated the contact and probably expected me to give personal information to correct the “mistake” or, at the very least, to figure out who is plotting my death. Guess I’m getting old enough that the scammers think I’m an easy mark.
