    So, who's the shady employee at H&R Block that tried to get away with this scam?

    Can't believe people are still going to H & R Block for tax preparation. Glad this issue was resolved. Shout out to Hank!
  • the shady employee who did their taxes should be in jail fr fr.
  • 95% of HR Blockhead employees are number typers, simply entering the numbers off the various forms that customers provide to them. They know no more Tax law than the average person. Their fees are exorbitant.

    Vo to CPA or Enrolled agent. Do not go to these tax preparers that have nothing to lose

    It's BS like this that has my taxes held up in the IRS.
  • Jackson Hewitt got me 18 years ago. I started educating myself on filing taxes and do it myself ever since then

    Well you did a poor job of explaining how the scam works

    Does the H&R Block card not have a chip? If it doesn't, that makes cloning a cinch. Also, high probability of insiders being the culprits. Could be at the tax prep place or somehow connected to the card issuer. Not reassuring. Better to have funds direct deposited to a regular bank account. Safer, since prepaid debit cards have less consumer protections. Many banks offer second chance accounts for those with past banking problems.
