SARS has robust security systems protecting taxpayer's information. Your information held by SARS can only be accessed using proven authentication methods, such as access using unique usernames and passwords and access confirmation using one-time passwords (OTPs).

Fraudsters are using a range of deceptive methods to get taxpayers to unwittingly provide them with personal information which are used to defraud the taxpayer and SARS. The fraudsters may also use your personal information in such a way that can result in you having increased tax liabilities to SARS and you can even become the subject of a criminal investigation.

You have to be vigilant at all times and protect your personal information from falling into the hands of fraudsters.
