TaxSlayer, H&R Block, TaxAct, and Ramsey Solutions accused of sharing info with Meta and Google
A quartet of Democratic lawmakers have penned a letter to the US Department of Justice asking it to prosecute tax preparation companies for sharing customer data, including tax return information, with Meta and Google.
The lawmakers claim personal information, income and tax refund amounts, filing status, exemptions, and info on deductions was shared with Google and Meta. It's not clear whether TIGTA investigated the same companies as those were named in the 2023 Senate report. According to TIGTA's findings, it shared concerns about the four companies examined in that document and"considered these concerns when developing the scope of our review," suggesting the same companies might be examined in both cases..
