  • The Internal Revenue Service is hiring armed special agents across the US.
  • The agency's Criminal Investigation unit wants people who are legally allowed to carry guns.

The Internal Revenue Service is hiring special agents who shouldn't be afraid of using "deadly force."

Criminal Investigation, the law enforcement branch of the IRS, is looking for agents across the US who can combine "accounting skills with law enforcement skills to investigate financial crimes," according to a job posting on its website.

"Special Agents are duly sworn law enforcement officers who are trained to 'follow the money.'"
