Investigators are working to determine the legitimacy of a claim that GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney's tax records have been stolen from an accounting firm's records.

The security breach was supposedly orchestrated at a Pricewaterhouse Coopers office in Franklin, Tenn., a suburb of Nashville.
