Hi, this is Brian Lopez with the special resolution unit. I'm reaching out about a tax matter that's both time sensitive and important. I really need to speak with you before your file moves into final collections. Please give me a call back when you can. My direct line is 833-727-9955. I've been checking through some files that got flagged before the 2026 IRS deadline, and yours is still showing a few unresolved items. Maybe a pass balance or missing returns? I'd really like to connect before this gets passed on to collections. From what I'm seeing, there may still be a way we can step in and help. Feel free to call me back. I am available 9 to 5 for the rest of the week. @media (min-width:768px){.css-1w6dufj{-webkit-box-flex:0;-webkit-flex-grow:0;-ms-flex-positive:0;flex-grow:0;-webkit-flex-basis:auto;-ms-flex-preferred-size:auto;flex-basis:auto;width:calc(100% * 6 / var(--Grid-parent-columns) - (var(--Grid-parent-columns) - 6) * (var(--Grid-parent-columnSpacing) / var(--Grid-parent- [BBB Scam Type: Tax Collection] [Business: Special Resolution Unit] [Location: MA, USA- 02143]
