Senators Warn Against AI Generated Tax Scams

(Washington, D.C.) -- Artificial intelligence computer programs can help tax scammers be more effective. Oregon Senator Ron Wyden has joined a bipartisan group of Senators asking the IRS to prepare for the problem. These scams can normally be identified by spelling mistakes, grammatical errors, and inaccurate references to tax code. Programs like ChatGPT can eliminate those mistakes. The Senators are asking the IRS to educate taxpayers and tax professionals about the existence of these new tax scams and what to watch out for. They also asked the IRS whether it expects these AI-generated tax scams to become more common and how they might evolve over time.
