Question

I received an email saying I filed a tax extension with TurboTax but I definitely didn’t. Can anyone help me figure out why?

You might be a victim of identity theft. I would get an IP Pin.

The IP Pin will change each and every year. This is an Identity Protection Pin.

You can get an Identity Protection pin here.

Thank you for the response. When I called support they told me that this was an automated message and that I actually had no file extension on record. I was very concerned about identity theft at first but thankfully was assured that is not the case.
