If you are a victim of Blue Tax, Inc you are not alone. You might have hired them by their trusted rating of A-, status granted by the Los Angeles BBB. You might have seen all of the great reviews on www.trustlink.org and ditto for the applause on 24-7 press release. I believe the VP of Blue Tax controls the contents released to the public on both of these sites, using this as a lure to steal your money.
PERSONAL EXPERIENCE:
I hired Blue tax THREE years ago and still NOTHING done by them, except steal my Money and close my case,(see below) I asked them to put me on paperwork and they promised by a certain date,and failed. I filed a complaint with the BBB and they sent me false paperwork that they really hadn't secured with the IRS, . Spoke with the IRS agent today,verified that they had no paperwork or contact with Blue Tax, and performed Blue taxes Obligation myself. Although Blue Tax claims that they put me on the paperwork as requested on 7/30/12 the IRS advised that they did NOT get confirmation on this paperwork, period., and I completed this task via telephone with them personally (another job Blue Tax was required to perform on my account). Blue Tax, again, has lied about taking care of the job to which they said that they will do, in order to "TRICK" me to remove my complaint with the BBB In the meantime my phone is being blown up by TL, VP of Blue Tax, demanding and threatening me to remove my complaint against the company with the BBB.The VP of Blue Tax called me this morning. He said that I "socked him in the eye" and "launched a missle" by filing a complaint with the BBB. I advised that he did the same to me, and if they would do their jobs I wouldn't have to take these measures. He opened up the phone call with saying are you (name close to mine) or something like this. I said yes... he said You threatened my agent that you would kill our children. And I see you also recently had a death of a child. I said I've never had a child, the "kill your children statement" is not even part of my lexicon, and its par for the course that you don't even have the correct file in front of you (3 years of "whats new here???.) (finally he found my file after that) But you see, other people apparently do not agree with your "A" rating either) (pay to get A ?)He said "You are talking to the "VICE PRESIDENT" ! I said "YOU ARE TALKING to the CONSUMER! He said he would not "lift a finger" until I removed my complaint to the Los Angeles BBB. I knew he lied about filing with the IRS so I asked him this:As promised from you, I want the IRS agents name and ID number to which confirmed that I am PLACED on CNC Status.You promised via telephone to produce this information . As you said it would be included with the CNC document sent to me via email, but again, it was not. We will talk after I obtain this information, to which you promised.
The following is his response, (this kind of mentality is what you constantly deal with regarding this egregious company:)
TL VP of Blue tax responded by saying:
That there was no such promise. He expressed that my fabrication of events and deceit continue to cloud my judgement of events and time lines.He expressed that I lied to us about being married and about the piece of property He expressed Blue Tax will no longer be held hostage to lies, bi polar personality, and verbal assaults laced with blasphemy and profanity. He said I may want to seek a small animal or child to whom may be defenseless against your attacks to pick on, but Blue Tax will no longer take your abuse. Then he stated that he closed my case and stated that No refund will be issued.
He closed by stating to me that he knows that I mentioned that you don't believe in god,( false) but as a god fearing company, we pray for your soul. It may be time to seek him and turn your life around
What an embarrassment to the State of California to allow this kind of "business" to continue to operate in their fine State.

Notes: Over and over again you will view numerous accounts of deception and fraud produced by this entity.Customers pay ample amounts to this company, and Blue Tax, Inc steals their money and closes their account without resolution.This is a criminal act... produced over and over again. If litigation papers are to be served, I verified with their Landlord Central Plaza,LLC AKA Jameson Properties Co IInc (213-487-3770) that Blue Tax, Inc does indeed run their "business" out of 3440 Wilshire Blvd., although results of previous investigations yielded that much of their corporate paperwork seems to come back to an Edgardo Lopez, Bankruptcy Attorney at 3600 Wilshire Blvd. Shady, to say the least.
In my experience,their Entity number comes up as not found. It is time to investigate if their so called Tax Attorneys are registered with the State Bar California, due to some disgruntled past Blue Tax employees expressing that their so called Tax Attorneys are not qualified.
It is said that when you call their number for help, it is just a Call Center.
It is said that no individual is allowed to come into their office, again shady, to say the least.
To TL VP of Blue Tax
I have asked your company not to have you contact me due to your unprofessionalism. You have not called me four times. You have attempted to bombard my phone with your calls, which are only continual rantings, along with personal jabs, to which I find harassing. Currently, you do not have the opportunity to conduct yourself in this manner on my voicemail, as I have had it turned off, to alleviate myself from your harassment. ... but now , after speaking with the IRS, I see there is attempted deception put into play concerning my account, in addition all of the above concerning your psyche.
We were not married at the (LONG) time ago that I employed your company, although you insist that I was.
You , personally, are not to contact me or any person in relation to me via telephone. ... I contacted the IRS, the paperwork that you sent me is a complete lie.. I personally took care of the job with The IRS to which you said was put IN PLACE on the 30th of July, by your company, which in reality... was not. I am entitled to a full refund from your company for noncompliance to the services to which you advertise, which to date have remained services not rendered. My complaint to the BBB justly stands, after notification from the IRS that you have not fulfilled your duties, although you claimed differently, which I see is an outright lie to me, the client .
Conclusion:
Blue Tax is a fraudulent, irresponsible company which will lie to you for years and years. They never perform the duties to which they describe what they will do in regards to tax relief, and in the end if you are suckered into their bogus "A" rating by the BBB, you will eventually be in litigation for noncompliance to their advertised bull, seeking punitive damages and so on and so forth.If they do send something to the IRS on your behalf, they send it to a IRS service center out in "Hicksville"to which has to forward it to the appropriate office to further delay any resolution, all the while keeping you at bay from complaints until you come to the realization of what is really going on with your account. File a complaint with the FTC, and sue them. Businesses like this need to be barred from this country. If you are a VICTIM of Blue Tax it is time that you file an extensive report of your dealings with them to the Los Angeles BBB and make sure their rating goes to what it should be "C' for Criminals or "F " for Fraudulent Failures. File a complaint with the AG.Post your experience. Do your part..... and save people from this pathetic outfit and bratty VP.

FTC Investigation
AUTHOR: pursuit of truth against Blue Tax - ()
SUBMITTED: Friday, January 03, 2014
FTC-The Public demands that you delve into the "investigation" that you telephoned me about instead of putting it off and ignoring the abundence of complaints regarding Blue TAX and Todd Lewis. This company should not be in exsistence. Look at all of the complaints that the California Attny Generals Office has obtained concerning this corrupt company. What does the California Attny Generals Office do about it?? Continue to let Todd Lewis be an embarrassment to their State. It is time to take action, and shut them down.

Don't fall prey to the new company brought to you by the wonderful Todd Lewis and Justin Urbas [Of the quickly declining Blue Tax scam]
You'll notice the similar childish animated poorly designed website FireFinancial.com that immediately reminds you of bluetax.com
They're not even trying to hide the relation, if you look at public WHOIS records of firefinancial, it's registered to Blue Tax VP Todd Lewis, and blue tax mailing address:
Registry Registrant ID:
Registrant Name: Todd Lewis
Registrant Organization:
Registrant Street: 8236 Remmet Ave.
Registrant City: Canoga Park
Registrant State/Province: California
Registrant Postal Code: 91304
Registrant Country: United States
Registrant Phone: 3103392867
In case you didn't know, Todd Lewis is the malicious, degrading, demeaning vp of Blue Tax that will tell you that you are going to hell, or must prey on little animals.
He'll promise you the world on the phone, or if he does agree to a refund check, it will bounce, because Blue Tax doesn't have any new money. That's why their starting "Fire Financial" out of the same office. You'll see the domain is only 2 months old, so any claims of 'prior customers' or 'prior performance' are complete FRAUD.
Blue tax's owner, David "justin" urbas has personally had liens filed on him by the state and IRS back in 04, AND he was ordered to pay a 1.3million restitution judgement in 06.

Corporate BBB fired the LAX BBB
AUTHOR: pfft - ()
SUBMITTED: Tuesday, August 20, 2013
The Corporate BBB expelled the Los Angeles BBBs rights to operate under the BBB name, as they were not upholding the BBBs standards to the public. (Example: an A rating for Blue Tax, Inc after tons of complaints on this fraudulent criminal company and gleefully clearing them of all complaints and upholding their "A" for a*s rating. ) The scorned LA BBB now hides sheepishly under "business consumer alliance" after their wrong doings and public misleadings (making one ponder if that they received kick backs for their gold stars to criminal companies such as Blue Tax, Inc.

Blue Tax is a con

SUBMITTED: Monday, May 06, 2013
Blue Tax takes your money and then lies. Todd Lewis is nothing more than a bully. He and his minions ask for a large deposit and then sits back. I advise anyone to use another service. Their BBB rating is a joke. Their number is 310-339-6827.
