Sometime in May, 2008, I received a communication from the IRS that a 1099 was received by them which purportedly was due to a payment made to me. The 1099 was for a sum of $10,000+. However, I do not recall having received a copy of this purported 1099. which if I did, I would have known that I owe the IRS for the said 1099.

I contacted Effectur since they advertise that they can help fix any problem an individual may encounter with the IRS. I paid the sum of $1800 for their service of representing my interest in dealing with the IRS. The contract was supposed to be for 1 year, or while I have not been cleared by the IRS. Effectur supposedly assigned a tax specialist by the name of Michelle Phillips. She and I spoke and she assured me that I am in good hands and that she will do her very best to help me resolve my problem with the IRS. She was supposed to have arranged for a compromise payment with the IRS, and yet I still get letters from the IRS saying that I must settle my payment. To top it all, when i tried calling Michelle, she does not answer her phone and only has a voice mail set up. I tried calling their supposed main phone but that too only has a voice mail. I have made calls to Effectur perhaps in excess of 300, but to do avail.

Bottom line, I am totally convinced that this company scammed me.

Corrections to this report...

AUTHOR: Brian - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Wednesday, November 19, 2008

Let me preface by saying that it is possible that I am looking at the wrong "Cesar" in Glendale, CA. However, the following corrections are based upon a client of ours named Cesar, who resides in Glendale, CA and who had Ms. Phillips as his Account Executive. I cannot find another Cesar from Glendale, CA in our database.

The services purchased by Cesar were clearly listed on the engagement agreement, exhibit A as: "Federal Fast Track Installment Agreement (no levy in effect)". Note that the service is explicit that the resolution will be an installment agreement. We identify it as such in order to remove any doubt as to whether or not we will be filing an Offer in Compromise or attempting to reduce a client's liability under this service.

The service was priced at $1,025, not $1,800 as the complaint states.

Cesar's contract does not state anywhere that we would represent him for one year. The contract was to set up the installment agreement, which was accomplished on 15 July 2008. An IRS letter in our files (dated 24 July 2008)indicates that this occured.

If Ms. Phillips is not returning your calls it is due to the fact that your case was completed according to the contract and confirmed by IRS documentation.

If I am referring to the wrong case, please provide some additional information by which I may identify you and respond to the details of your case.
