The caller identified herself as “Kendra Waters” from a “Tax Abatement and Relief Office.” The message stated that my “file is still under active review” and that there were items that had not yet been confirmed. The caller emphasized urgency, saying it was important to complete a verification step while the file was still open. She instructed me to call back a “direct proprietary verification line” to determine what tax relief programs I qualify for. The callback number provided was 888-789-3561.
