Intuit may require proof of identity to authenticate that you are the rightful account owner if you're accessing sensitive features, kccfloors.

 

Before providing sensitive documents like your Social Security card photos, ensure the request comes directly from Intuit through official communications. Official emails will always come from an email address that ends with @intuit.com. This includes @e.intuit.com.

 

If you're ever in doubt about an email that claims to be from Intuit, check out our security notices for details of suspicious emails reported by other Intuit customers.

 

For more information and tips, you can also check out our detailed article on how to identify suspicious activity, phishing scams, and potential fraud.
