IRS suspends Equifax contract: report
By Josh Delk - 10/12/17 07:58 PM EDT

The IRS has temporarily suspended a contract it awarded to Equifax, following reports that the company suffered a second data breach, Politico reports.

The $7.2 million contract was for Equifax to verify taxpayers' identities and help combat fraud.


The incident comes just over a month after Equifax disclosed a massive data breach in which hackers stole the personal information of more than 145 million U.S. consumers.

If we could permanently suspend the IRS we would have something!

Good, Equifax should be bankrupted over this. And any who gave Equifax my info, should have to pay for a lifetime of credit/identity protection on their dime for all affected by this.
