That's based on my years of experience in the information security industry. Trust me, if Intuit and H&R Block were being breached, I would know about it. And more than likely, so would you.

But your comment about identity theft, that's part of the "file it before someone else does" aspect. Not necessarily that Intuit is getting broken into, but the rampant identity theft that seems to be common and even acceptable in today's day and age is making it a lot easier to file someone else's taxes for them and then make off with the money. And hackers will always go for the easiest target.
