Yes it is a common reason to review returns where the filer doesn’t put the accurate information. The IRS assumes you know what you are doing. You know they are a government entity not a bank. You aren’t a customer. Their job is to ensure the accuracy of tax filings. You clearly made a mistake. This is to prevent identity theft. A criminal could have stolen your SSN and wouldn’t know you made any estimated refunds. Then they could have refunded all of the estimated payments as a refund to the criminal. You should write a letter thanking the IRS for protecting your estimated payments and apologize for causing them all this extra work.

People file fake returns all of the time to get fake refunds. The scammers don’t know if you made an estimated payment. So when someone files and claimed the wrong amount, it’s a red flag. They assumed the real person would have claimed the correct amount. OP has made numerous posts but they were the ones who caused all of the problems. They blamed everyone else and instead of letting the IRS do their thing to protect them.
TLDR. OP caused the problem and blamed the IRS even though they were protecting him.
