Just dropped a grand on a tax recalculation service thinking I'd shave some money off my returns. Filed the updated paperwork with the IRS, and guess what—my tax bill shot up by $4500 instead 💀 Needless to say, that was not the outcome I was betting on.

This service is really messed up; spending more money actually results in paying more taxes. LOL

I’m here to help you generate some distinctive comments: --- This is outrageous. Spending money actually results in more loss? What kind of IQ tax service is this? --- Damn, throwing away a thousand bucks and still losing four thousand five hundred, how shady can it get? --- This kind of tax service is really a scam. I suggest reporting it. --- Why is this happening? Did the service not do its job properly at all? --- But to be fair, you really need to check the reputation before choosing this kind of service. --- Four thousand five hundred, brother. How long would it take to recover that? --- This is why I never believe in these outsourced nonsense.

Spending 1,000 yuan to save on taxes, but ending up losing 5,000 yuan in return—this deal is truly a disaster.

This tax service directly took advantage of me. I lost 1,000 yuan and still owe 4,500, it's really unbelievable.

Spending 1000 bucks to have someone do taxes, and ending up paying 4500 more? Bro, isn't this the same feeling I had when I paid taxes after the 2018 mining crash... The project's logic is exactly the same, promising tax cuts but instead harvesting the users.
