As required by the FAST Act of 2015 signed into law by President Obama, there are four private debt collection agencies tasked with collecting bad tax debts on behalf of the IRS starting in 2017. They are: 1. The CBE Group of Cedar Falls, Iowa 2. Conserve of Fairport, New York, 3. Pioneer of Horseheads, New York 4. Performant of Livermore, California In this video, we discuss exactly why private collections of IRS debt is a terrible idea, and how it is likely the IRS agrees. The biggest beneficiary of this law will likely be the IRS scammers who will pose as collection agencies. The IRS used to claim then never call. They had to change that statement as now agents of the IRS will call. The IRS claims they aren't rude or intimating like IRS scam callers. The large volume of reviews on these four collections agencies is at odds with this claim. IRSMedic, the Law Offices of Parent & Parent, LLP 888-272-8796 info@irsmedic.com
