Whether you owe or are owed a refund in real life, you are still supposed to file via regular mail instead - nothing changes. The only difference is if you expected a refund, it will now come after the investigation, 6+ months later... If you owed, it has little impact other than knowing someone out there can open bank accounts and CC in your name.
Again, I recommend everyone freeze their credit, it's not as dire as it sounds, you unfreeze it when needed.... In this day and age, at least 5 or 6 sources have lost *your* information (doctor, med insurance, a car dealer, a credit card co., Target, the gov't, your employer, your ex-employer, etc...)
