Are you feeling economically stimulated?

I know the IRS has stimulated The Husband and myself, as evidenced by our bank account doubling over night. However, apparently the IRS had a computer glitch recently that resulted in some people getting stimulation that should have been directed to other people’s accounts.

“We do know of instances of problems; we’ve heard of situations where stimulus checks have gone to the wrong people’s bank accounts,” conceded Kevin McKeon, the Internal Revenue Service spokesman for the New York region. “We’re getting a lot of calls to the toll-free number.”

Ooops.

If you have yet to be (economically) stimulated by the government, there are toll-free numbers you can call:

866-234-2942
800-829-1954
