Maneras seguras de detectar a un estafador

 

Anatomía de una estafa de impostores

Los estafadores dicen y hacen cosas que nos pueden indicar que están mintiendo y que no son quienes fingen ser. Por supuesto que para escuchar o ver esas pistas, tenemos que superar el pánico que nos hacen sentir los estafadores, gracias a las supuestas emergencias que intentan crear. Y como los estafadores son convincentes, eso también puede ser difícil de lograr. Pero las estafas más recientes le están costando a la gente los ahorros de toda una vida, y es por eso que aquí te listamos algunas maneras seguras de detectar al estafador.

Cosas que sólo dicen los estafadores:

  • “¡Actúe ya!” Eso es una estafa. Los estafadores te presionan para que no tengas tiempo de pensar. Pero la presión para actuar en el acto siempre es un signo de una estafa. Y también es un motivo para pisar el freno.
  • “Sólo diga lo que yo le diga que diga”. Eso es una estafa. En el mismo minuto que alguien te diga que le mientas a otros, incluidos los cajeros del banco o los agentes de inversiones, pisa el freno. Es una estafa.
  • “No confíe en nadie. Ellos están involucrados”. Eso es una estafa. Los estafadores quieren aislarte de cualquier persona que pueda frenarte.
  • “Haga [esto] o lo arrestarán”. Eso es una estafa. Cualquier amenaza como ésta es una mentira. Nadie necesita que le entregues dinero o información para mantenerte fuera de la cárcel, impedir que te deporten o evitar multas más altas. Son todas estafas.
  • “No cuelgue el teléfono”. Esa es una estafa. Si alguien quiere que permanezcas al teléfono mientras tú retiras o transfieres dinero, compras tarjetas de regalo o cualquier otra cosa que te pida que hagas: es un estafador. CUELGA el teléfono.

También te brindamos una lista de las cosas que únicamente los estafadores te dirán que hagas:

  • Mueva su dinero para protegerlo” es una estafa. Nadie que actúe legítimamente te dirá que transfieras o retires dinero de tus cuentas bancarias o de inversión. Pero los estafadores sí lo harán.
  • “Retire dinero y compre lingotes de oro” es una estafa. Siempre. En toda ocasión.
  • “Retire dinero y entrégueselo a [cualquiera]” es una estafa. Digan lo que digan: es una estafa. No se lo des a un mensajero, no lo entregues en ninguna parte, ni lo envíes. Es una estafa.
  • “Vaya a un cajero ATM de Bitcoin” es una estafa. Nadie que actúe legítimamente te insistirá jamás para que obtengas criptomonedas de ninguna clase. Y no hay ninguna razón legítima para que alguien te mande a un cajero ATM de Bitcoin. Es una estafa.
  • “Compre tarjetas de regalo” es una estafa. Nunca hay ningún motivo para pagar algo con una tarjeta de regalo. Y una vez que compartes los números de PIN que están al dorso de la tarjeta, tu dinero desaparece.

Si ves o escuchas cualquier versión de estas frases, acabas de detectar a un estafador. En lugar de hacer lo que dicen que hagas, pisa el freno. Cuelga el teléfono. Elimina el email. Deja de intercambiar mensajes de texto. Bloquea su número, haz lo que sea para alejarte del estafador. Y luego, cuéntaselo a alguien de tu confianza y reporta la estafa a la FTC en ReporteFraude.ftc.gov.

Si alguien le dice, “No confíe en nadie. Están involucrados”, es una estafa.

Nuestra serie de blogs "Anatomía de una estafa de impostores" explica cómo reconocer, evitar y denunciar a los estafadores que se hacen pasar por un negocio o por el gobierno. Lee más.

 Auto dealers must register with the IRS to receive advance payments of the Clean Vehicle Tax Credit

To submit time-of-sale reports and receive advance payments of the Clean Vehicle Tax Credit, auto dealers and sellers must register their business with IRS Energy Credits Online. Dealers and sellers must use this tool to submit all time-of-sale reports for vehicles placed in service in 2024 and future years.

How to register
To register or access a previously registered business, dealers and sellers can go to IRS Energy Credits Online. The step-by-step instructions guide them through the process to register, submit time-of-sale reports and enter advance payment information. It may take 15 days or longer for the registration to process.

Once registered, dealers and sellers must use this tool to enter time-of-sale reports and provide the buyer certain required information.  

What happens after registration
When a dealer successfully submits a time-of-sale report, the vehicle is eligible for the credit. A submission is successful when the dealer receives a copy of the report and a confirmation of acceptance by IRS Energy Credits Online. Buyers should use the copy of the report when they file their annual federal tax return.

TAX DEADLINE APPROACHING

As the season progresses, it is important to understand the IRS due deadlines. Not meeting the deadlines can lead to major difficulties depending on the nature of the violation. Here we list several deadlines you should be aware of for your financial planning.
 
For Personal Tax Returns for the year 2023, the due date is April 15, 2024. This applies to paying IRS dues or any request for an extension. 

For citizens of Maine, due to federal holidays, their due date will be moved to April 17, 2024.

For people in a federally declared disaster area, extensions may vary area to area, so go to the IRS website to find out whether are located in a disaster area and whether the deadline has been pushed.

BEWARE OF MEDICAL EXPENSE MISREPRESENTATION

 

The IRS has reported concerns over the common interpretation regarding the difference between medical expenses and their relation to deductions or reimbursements. Personal expenses for general health and wellness do not count as medical expenses for IRS purposes. However, due to similarities, many individuals and even companies have made the error of conflating the two. 

This is important for personal and organizational purposes. For individuals, they may be tempted to write up certain wellness products as reimbursements. For companies, they may mistakenly belief, or falsely claim, that self-reporting may be all that is needed to make expenses which are not specifically targeted for the purposes of a diagnosis, might be a medical expense under tax law.

When people confuse the definition of medical expense under tax law, they are at risk of either being exploited or becoming disadvantaged. Because of this it is crucial to be well-informed when it comes to any issue regarding the law. The IRS provides many resources from which you can learn about the technicalities of tax code. In addition, we at 200GFS are always open to do a consultation about IRS regulations and obligations. Call us today and we will make sure you know everything you need to know to wring out the most of Spring.

100 years of wisdom: Two World War II Veteran centenarians

 Two World War II Veteran centenarians celebrating their 100th and 101st birthdays have seen drastic changes in the world.

Veterans James W. Smith and Alexander E. Vroblesky have experienced many changes in their lifetime with help from the VA Maryland Health Care System.

“Without Maryland VA, my dad would probably be in a nursing home and he might not still be alive,” said Ginny Vroblesky, his daughter and caregiver. “His primary care doctor has advised and provided the necessary supplies to enable me to take care of him. We were able to get a wheelchair accessible van because of his combat related injuries.”

Audrey Smith, James W. Smith’s daughter, echoes the sentiment. “From the emergency room staff to various specialty personnel and the inpatient hospital staff, all have worked together to focus on the right care plan for his specific needs. Anything he needed, for example to hear better, has been provided. A stair lift is on the way.”

“The focus is to maintain a good quality of life.”

“These oldest patients can have medically complex issues,” said Dr. Saeeduddin Khan, of the GeriPACT team who serves the older patients. “Our goal is to do what is best for the Veterans’ wellbeing. The focus is to maintain a good quality of life as long as possible.”

This means not relying on a plethora of medicines that could bring about unwelcomed side effects. “Every medicine has side effects. Sometimes by giving medicines to patients at this age to solve one problem, it creates a series of other problems due to the side effects,” Khan added.

Born in Oxford, North Carolina, the oldest of eight children, Rev. James W. Smith, who turned 100 Nov. 6, 2023, grew up on a farm before being drafted into the Army the first time in 1944, and the second time in 1947. He worked in food service as a dietitian and cook.

He married Mary Alice Royster in 1950, and they had two daughters, Belendia and Audrey. “As a result of my service, I was able to gain access to education, health care and other services that improved my life and that of my family. I’ve been coming to VA since my first discharge in 1946 in North Carolina and later Maryland,” Smith said.

Smith credits all his success to his relationship with God and heeding the call to enter the ministry. He organized the Little Antioch Baptist Church in Baltimore which later become Second Antioch Baptist Church where he served as pastor for 42 years.

“I want people to see the importance of having a good relationship with God first, then your family and friends and those you with work with. Then you will have a happy life because of all your positive relationships.” He preached the day before his 100th birthday.

“She was interested in a fire truck and I was interested in her.”

Alexander E. Vroblesky (pictured above with his family) celebrated his 101st birthday Oct. 19, 2023. Born in Highland, Pennsylvania, he worked as a riveter in Baltimore. He met the young woman who would become his wife, Virginia Walker, when he saw a fire truck followed by a beautiful woman. “She was chasing the fire truck because she came from a small town in West Virginia and had never seen a fire truck before. She was interested in the truck, and I was interested in her.”

Vroblesky enlisted in the Army in 1942 and was accepted into Air Cadet training to become a pilot. He became a member of the 15th Air Force, 485th Bomb Group, 829th Bomb Squadron, stationed in Italy. 

As a co-pilot of a B-24 bombing mission, his plane became disabled, causing the crew to bail out. “Most of us were captured and became POWs.” In Yugoslavia, while the prisoners were out of the train, the Chetniks came down from the hills and fought the Germans. The prisoners took off in all directions. The Bulgarians helped him rejoin the allies, but the prisoners were in tough shape and were taken for medical treatment.

Vroblesky returned to duty once he recovered. He spent 20 years in the Air Force as a training and personnel officer helping to shape the futures of young Airmen. His favorite assignment was as Commandant of the 313th Air Division Military Academy at Kadena, Okinawa.

After his discharge, he and Virginia stayed in Annapolis, where they raised their three children. They were married for 72 years, until her death at age 94 in 2017.

“The phrase ‘surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life’ is appropriate for me,” he said, reflecting on his long life.

Read their full story.

“Caring for our older Veterans, including those who have just turned 100, is a testament to our gratitude and respect for their service,” said Jona DeVera, coordinator for Outpatient Antimicrobial Therapy. “It’s an honor to serve them.”

Maryland VA offers specialized programs for eligible elderly Veterans. These services include home and community services, long-term care, fitness and rehabilitation, caregiver support, mental health, memory loss and brain health, medical foster homes and many more innovative programs that promote health and wellness.

Conference set for July 16-18 in Portland, Oregon

February 19, 2024

Suicide Prevention Conference Planning Team

The health and well-being of the nation’s service members and Veterans continues to be a top priority for VA and the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD). We are partnering again this year to host the 2024 VA/DoD Suicide Prevention Conference, the nation’s only conference dedicated to addressing military and Veteran suicide prevention.

The conference is scheduled to be held July 16–18 at the Oregon Convention Center in Portland.

Guided by the National Strategy for Preventing Veteran Suicide and Department of Defense Strategy for Suicide Prevention, VA and DoD care teams, leaders, allies and subject matter experts from across the country are invited to come together and share comprehensive and public health-based strategies to prevent suicide nationwide. Submit your abstract today.

Increasing the reach

This year’s theme—”Reimagining Suicide Prevention: Evolving and Innovating to Meet Diverse Needs”—focuses on innovative ways to reach at-risk service members and Veteran populations. This especially includes historically underserved and growing populations, such as Women, LGBTQ+, American Indian and Alaskan Native, and others.

We are seeking abstracts that address one or more of the following strategic directions:

  1. Increasing the knowledge of and ability to engage with current effective practices and evidence-based approaches to prevent suicide. 
  2. Increasing awareness of clinical and community prevention, intervention and postvention strategies, tools and programs that will enhance equitable, and inclusive population access.
  3. Increasing the ability to promote innovative, sustainable strategies and interventions that meet the current and future needs of all Veterans, service members and those who support them. 

Submit your abstract today

The due date for abstract submissions is March 4 at 11:59 p.m. ET. Go to the Conference Platform to submit your abstract.

Questions and contact

IRS WARNINGS AGAINST SCAMS/EL IRS ADVIERTE CONTRA ESTAFAS

IRS warns tax professionals to be aware of EFIN scam email

In a recent security submit, the IRS has presented the threat of scam emails directed to steal the EFINs of several software companies. They pose as tax software providers to gain access to client data to file for fraudulent tax returns for refunds. 

The IRS has proceeded to make several webinars that will teach you anything you may need to know about these scams. They begin Feb. 12 and will continue throughout the the week.

Signs you can use to spot a fake include: a means from which EFIN documents may be sent or faxed to an area code, instructions on how to get EFIN information online, or even multiple fax numbers for the same vendor. Do not respond to these emails, and most certainly do not follow their instructions.

This post is heavily based on an article by the IRS. Use the link below to get more information on tax scams and to join available webinars on the very subject.

Honoring Veterans: Marine Corps Veteran Purcell Johnson

 This week’s Honoring Veterans Spotlight honors the service of Marine Corps Veteran Purcell Johnson, who served during WWII from 1943 to 1946.

Johnson was from Dahlgren, Virginia. Many of his family members have military backgrounds, including his sister, Romay Davis, and his brother, Stan Johnson, who both received a Congressional Gold Medal.

Johnson registered for Selective Service in 1942, working at the Dahlgren Navy Yard before finally enlisting in the Class III Volunteer Marine Corps Reserve in October 1943. Along with his younger brother, he eventually became a Marine at Montford Point Camp in Jacksonville, North Carolina.

Johnson served in the 7th Separate Infantry Battalion and then ultimately transferred to the 29th Marine Depot Company in July 1944 when he was promoted to corporal. He was stationed at Banika Island, where his unit provided logistical support to other Marine units. He later relocated to Guam in Marianas Island, where he earned his sergeant stripes in July 1945. In January 1946, he became an MP.

Johnson returned to the states and was honorably discharged. He served three years in the Marine Corps Reserve, including two of those years overseas. He was celebrated as an aircraft mechanic with Trans World Airlines in his post-military career.

Johnson died April 2002. He was 78. In January 2024, his sister, Pvt. Romay Johnson Davis, received his posthumous bronze replica of the Congressional Gold Medal during a ceremony in Montgomery on his behalf, making him the third sibling with this medal.

We honor his service.

U.S. Department of Homeland Security Daily Digest Bulletin (Boletín de resumen diario del Departamento de Seguridad Nacional de EE. UU.)

 

Departamento de Seguridad Nacional de EE. UU.
Declaración del Secretario
Mayorkas sobre el Acuerdo Bipartidista de Seguridad Nacional en el Senado de Estados Unidos

DEPARTAMENTO DE SEGURIDAD NACIONAL DE EE. UU.

Oficina de Asuntos Públicos


Declaración del Secretario Mayorkas sobre la Acuerdo bipartidista de seguridad nacional en el Senado de EE.UU. 

WASHINGTON – El Secretario de Seguridad Nacional, Alejandro N. Mayorkas, emitió la siguiente declaración sobre el acuerdo bipartidista de seguridad nacional en el Senado de Estados Unidos:

“El acuerdo bipartidista en el Senado es duro, justo y toma medidas significativas para abordar los desafíos que enfrenta nuestro país después de décadas de inacción del Congreso.

“Permitiría al DHS expulsar más rápidamente a quienes no establecen una base legal para permanecer en Estados Unidos, reduciendo el tiempo de años a meses. Aceleraría la protección y la autorización de trabajo para aquellos con reclamos legítimos. Brindaría flexibilidad para responder a la dinámica cambiante en la frontera, incluida la prohibición temporal de las entradas fronterizas para ciertas personas cuando los encuentros son extremadamente altos. También proporciona recursos muy necesarios para apoyar y ampliar la fuerza laboral del DHS después de décadas de falta de financiación crónica, y además invierte en tecnología para ayudar a evitar que el fentanilo ingrese a nuestro país por los puertos de entrada.

“Este acuerdo se basa en el enfoque de esta Administración de reforzar las consecuencias para quienes cruzan la frontera ilegalmente, sin restringir el desarrollo de vías legales, seguras y ordenadas para quienes califican. Si bien tomará tiempo implementar completamente estas nuevas medidas, las nuevas herramientas y recursos de aplicación que ofrece esta propuesta fortalecerán aún más nuestra capacidad para hacer cumplir la ley en los meses y años venideros, y comenzaremos a implementarlas tan pronto como se convierta en ley.

“Agradezco al grupo bipartidista de senadores que se reunieron durante los últimos meses para elaborar esta legislación. Estas propuestas son producto de extensas negociaciones y conversaciones. Mis colegas del DHS y yo tuvimos el privilegio de brindar experiencia técnica y operativa a los senadores para garantizar que estas soluciones sean viables y efectivas. Si bien la legislación propuesta no soluciona todo en nuestro sistema de inmigración, estas reformas son esenciales para hacer que nuestra frontera sea más segura, ordenada, justa y humana. Hago un llamado al Congreso para que apruebe esta legislación bipartidista, brinde a la fuerza laboral del DHS las herramientas y recursos que necesitamos y brinde soluciones que aumenten nuestra seguridad fronteriza”.
