IRS freezes its fraud prevention contract with Equifax
The IRS got a lot of flak from both ordinary citizens and lawmakers when it awarded Equifax a fraud prevention contract earlier this month. After all, they forged their partnership after the credit reporting agency revealed that it recently suffered a massive security breach that affected 145 million Americans. Now, after reports came out that an adware installer lived in the agency's website, IRS has decided to temporarily suspend the $7.2 million, no-bid contract.
