So, last night my friend was trying to look up when her refund will be deposited into her account, and I was watchin, the link it took her to asked the same questions as the one i went to, but mine was the irs website..hers was some bank...
It kept asking her to type in the security code and never gave her a real answer.
I dont know if it was bogus, but it seemed like it.
Santa Barbara Bank and Trust or something like that.
So, if it was they got her social security number and stuff like that.

Anyone ever heard of that?

Bummer for her..I guess.
I'll tell her.
I looked at it and didn't think it was legit.

I would check the IRS website.

All refunds are issued on Friday's.

I had a couple of problems of not going where i had typed in(phishing or redirected) but it wasn't the IRS if your friend had tried to go there and got redirected they would probably want to know I'm sure they would take some sort of legal action against that bank.

[Poker_Beast]

Good luck, I hope doesn't get ripped on this one.

Suntrust is a legit bank in the south east. They are all over SC, NC, TN, and FL that I know of.

[rugbybdyb]

Tell her to get blocks on all three of the major credit reporting companies so no one can access her credit if she gave her ss# etc.....

Very easy tax software. I used to pay a CPA money to do my taxes for me, not anymore. I have been using this software for about 5 years now and it's very easy to follow and use. If anyone is paying a CPA they are throwing away money.
