This isn't about the normal theft of someone's tax refund by fraudulently filing a tax return. This about the IRS itself divulging the sensitive data required to fraudulently file tax returns. Someone tried about 200k times and got about 100k sets of people's tax histories. In the more mundane act of fraudulently bypassing the IRS's trivial security to steal a tax return… thieves got me, probably as a result of Anthem's inadequate security. The thieves didn't even have the courtesy to pay what I owed! I say you file my tax return, you take your chances. The maddening part, aside from the scramble when the April 14th filing from the tax people failed, is that no one in law enforcement is the slightest bit interested in enforcing the law.
