Quizplus · Accepted Answer

If the fraud investigator is not an employee of the IRS or a member of a federal agency that can obtain tax records via subpoena, they may still obtain information through discovery or voluntary consent of the taxpayer. This means that the taxpayer may provide the necessary information to the investigator voluntarily or through legal means such as a court order or subpoena. A bench warrant is used to compel someone to appear in court, but it is not typically used to obtain tax records. A subpoena issued by a Grand Jury is only applicable in certain criminal investigations and may not be relevant to every case. Therefore, option B is the best choice as it is most applicable in general situations.
