I spent three hours on the phone today with the IRS. Well. 30 minutes talking to people and 2 1/2 hours on hold! I spoke with three different CSRs about my tax return. And, after all that time I was able to find out that my case has not been assigned to a fraud investigator yet and that the refund and stimulus check went to the same thief who use a Green Dot account. I was told by the last rep I spoke with to give it time, up to 180 days!
While on hold I looked up Green Dot bank and found that it is basically a debit/credit card supplier and it is very hard to trace any money deposited to one of their cards. So, hopefully I will know if I am going to get my Federal return and stimulus check by Christmas.
