Tax Scam Alert: The Distraint Warrant

Last week, we received a letter that purported to be from the “Tax Processing Unit – Tarrant County Public Judgment Records.” The letter surprised us because it was in a form that we had not previously encountered and we could not readily identify which taxing authority was seeking payment. It is common for a client to have issues with multiple taxing authorities, e.g., the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), the Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts and various County Tax Assessors-Collectors and it is common for each of the taxing authorities to send collection notices. However, this letter titled “Distraint Warrant” immediately caught our eye, as it was not a common collection notice.

Please see full publication below for more information.
