| Status | Hoax | | Comments | Fraudulent tax preparers have been running a "Black Inheritance Tax" or "Slavery Reparation," claiming that you can get money from the government if your ancestors were slaves. | | Description | Subject: FW: FW: Tax Refund (Please send to everyone you can!)
This goes out to all my friends, family, and everyone in the African
American community. Once you receive this message please write down
the number and then pass it along to every African American you know.
As you my know, all African Americans living here in the United States
are descendants of slavery, therefore our government has finally passed
a bill to pay all descendants back. The way they are paying us back
is through a refund called the, "Black Inheritance Tax Refund/40 Acres
and a Mule". When you call this number you'll give them your name,
address, and phone number and they'll send you out a packet, which includes
further details and information on how to receive the refund. I was
informed that it will take only two weeks to receive the packet and then
two weeks to receive the money. Now, if you know our government I bet
they are not expecting a lot of people to call for this refund, and they
may be right, because many of us will not be informed of this. Therefore,
this is why I am taking it upon myself to pass on this information, so our
community will soon be informed through word-of-mouth about what has been
owed to our ancestors all these years.

I had this checked out and it is legit. When I called the

receiving their checks. She said that President Clinton wrote
the bill and it has finally been passed. The IRS will not tell

about our rights.
She said to make sure you fill the application out accurately

processed.
