Important information

  • Customer Complaint:

    The BBB has received numerous complaints from consumers that allege paying a large fee to this firm for EIN numbers and the company claiming to be with the IRS.  Online searches for this company website show that the website is based in Iceland and not in the United States.  BBB strongly encourages consumers to visit the irs.gov website directly for any assistance in obtaining a EIN number.  Consumers report their bank accounts being charged hundreds of dollars repeatedly for fees and providing SSN, passport information and other forms of ID that have then been compromised.  To date, we have not received any responses to the complaints on file.  

     

    BBB suggests consumers also report their experience to the FTC at www.ftc.gov

    I am trying to apply for an EIN for my family ranch and was not paying attention clicked on the first "sponsored" link. After submitting all of my and my husband's personal information they asked for $250 which was a red flag to me. Unfortunately, I had already submitted all my personal information. I am reporting this scam site and also trying to get my personal data purged from their system.

    2/24/25 I paid 299 for a service that is free of charge on the *** website. When I reached out to the provider I was denied a refund. I wouldnt have minded paying the monies if the *** also charged.

    Realized as I was clicking send, that this is a SCAM!!! I thought was on the official site to obtain an EIN number instead this place charged $247. I immediately emailed to cancel order and have yet to receive a response. I also called and left a voice message. There was no option to speak with a human at the time of my call. I have disputed the charge with my credit card company and canceled the card I used. This is not ethical.

    Just recently submitted application online through this site which appears to be legitimate. Charged me $300 for a free service. Tried calling their listed number but not able to leave voicemail. Emailed them as well just after asking for a cancellation, but most likely not going to get a response there either.

    I am embarrassed to report that I was scammed by a website appearing to represent itself as an official website of the ************************* While in a hurry to obtain an *** for a newly-formed entity --a task I have completed several times over the years-- I Googled for "irs ein application" and the first result given was: ********************************** The url result had ******** green check circle and, even with having completed numerous online safety trainings, I continued to the legitimate-looking site. I went on to fill in the requested information, to include a social security number, and upon submitting the data was sent to a payment screen requesting a $250.00 payment. -- Although my recollection was that applying for an *** was free of charge in the past, I assumed this $250 fee was simply another result of the ***** Administration's policies. So, I entered the credit card data and submitted the application.Rather than receiving an almost immediate reply with the SS-4 for with the *** (as I recalled from past applications), the site gave me a sub-webpage to track my order status. After repeated checks on the status, later in the day the site provided me with a copy of the SS-4 with the new ***. (I am hoping this is legitimate. It looks genuine.)Upon not receiving a receipt (even though my bank account shows the $250 charge went through), I went back to the website to look for the option to print/download the receipt. It was at this point that I realized this official-looking site was actually a private entity named "Tax ID Support" with that name and "***-IRS-Tax-Number.com" listed in the fine print at the bottom of the various pages on their site. My primary concern is that both a social security number and a credit card number were solicited and obtained by an entity intentionally and deceptively presenting itself as an official IRS website (regardless of the fine print). This should be investigated and the scheme should be stopped.

    I am very disappointed to discover that this organization is a service outside of the **** They falsely pose as an official IRS entity with its name in their url which tricks people into paying for a typically free service through the government **** I reached out to them to dispute the charge after applying through them for an EIN then finding out about their false pretenses. They responded back immediately with a lot of language to say how theyre covered from wrongdoingthey must have that response on the ready after many other similar complaints. So many words to cover deceitshameful!
