How To Keep From Getting Ripped Off?
Many “Tax Negotiation” companies out there will absolutely rip you off. These unscrupulous firms will take your money regardless of whether they can help you or not. They’ll lie to you and tell you they can get all the penalties and interest wiped out. They’ll lie to you and tell you they’ll settle with the IRS for “pennies on the dollar” when they know damn well you don’t possibly qualify for the Offer in Compromise program.
How do they get away with this? Easy, most of the people you talk to at these unscrupulous firms are sales representatives. They have NO license to protect. You don’t actually speak to the EA (Enrolled Agent), the CPA (Certified Public Accountant) or the attorney that these firms claim to have. Nope, you speak to some slimy unlicensed salesman. Some of these firms make up titles like Tax Resolution Specialist, or Tax Consultant. What a scam! In fact, many of these unscrupulous firms aren’t tax firms or law firms at all, they’re just sales organizations!

As per the IRS Offer in Compromise
If taxpayers are unable to pay a tax debt in full and an installment agreement is not an option, they may be able to take advantage of an offer in compromise (OIC). Generally, an OIC should be viewed as a last resort after taxpayers have explored all other available payment options. The IRS resolves less than one percent of all balance due accounts through the OIC program.
