Listen to Ralph Nader's March 3, 2000 speech in San Francisco. Tax fraud Bush's tax cut plan shows he also has problems with "the vision thing." By Ralph Nader Bush's tax cut plan shows he also has problems with "the vision thing." President Bush may not realize it, but moderate and liberal members of Congress could save him a lot of grief if they voted down or sharply modified the administration's proposal for a massive tax cut. Fueled by the excess of campaign promises, the president's $1.6 trillion tax cut threatens to return the nation to the dark days of growing deficits, higher interest rates, and tightfisted public-investment policies which leave no room for dealing with the nation's most pressing social and economic problems. Sadly, the president has put the plan forward with flimsy supporting data and with long-range, highly optimistic projections of budget surpluses that, if history is any guide, will fade under economic and political realities. The Congressional Budget Office, on whose projections the president hangs his tax cut hat, concedes that its projections are subject to wide-ranging variables that may or may not survive rising costs and unforeseen economic problems: for example, rising costs for health care or slower-than-anticipated economic growth.

HOME Tax Fraud Alerts General Tax Fraud Program G eneral Tax Fraud Program "Taxes are what we pay for a civilized society." Oliver Wendell Homes Overview The term voluntary compliance means that each of us is responsible for filing a tax return when required, and for determining and paying the correct amount of tax. Fortunately, the vast majority of Americans recognize their legal responsibility, and properly report and pay over their tax obligations. The efforts of Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigation (CI) are directed at the portion of American taxpayers who willfully and intentionally violate their known legal duty of voluntarily filing income tax returns and/or paying the correct amount of income, employment, or excise taxes. These individuals pose a serious threat to tax administration and the American economy. The General Fraud Program is Criminal Investigation's largest enforcement program encompassing a wide variety of investigations involving tax and money laundering crimes. This program includes investigations involving a broad spectrum of individuals and industries from all facets of the economy, from small business owners to self employed to large corporations. General Fraud cases constitute the main component of CI's efforts to most directly influence taxpayer compliance with the Internal Revenue Code. General Fraud is the program from which CI identifies emerging areas of non-compliance in both Legal Source Tax Crimes and Illegal Source Financial Crimes. These emerging areas are instrumental in ensuring CI is focusing resources to most effectively achieve our mission.

I have no idea how this guy got cleared for that sort of excuse, when he couldn't actually show what the virus did.

Judicial Doctrines Relevant To Tax Fraud Schemes The following judicial doctrines have been developed by the courts to analyze the economic substance of a transaction and then determine its tax consequences. Tax Evasion vs. Tax Avoidance Unfortunately, the terms "tax evasion" and "tax avoidance" are often used interchangeably. Tax evasion involves fraudulent or criminal behavior, conduct involving deception, concealment, or destruction of records. The classic description of tax avoidance was written by Judge Learned Hand in Helvering v. Gregory , 69 F. 2d 809, 810 (2 nd In contrast, tax evasion occurs when the taxpayer fraudulently or criminally avoids the payment of taxes otherwise due and owing under the tax laws. There are many tax crimes under the Internal Revenue Code. In that regard, in Spies v. U.S. 317 U.S. 492, 497 (1943) the Supreme Court observed: The criminal violations cover the same territory as the civil fraud penalties, although the government has a higher burden of proof in the criminal cases. The criminal cases, however, reach a far greater spectrum of potential defendants. Unlike the civil penalties which target only the taxpayer, the criminal penalties reach anyone engaging in the defined offense, including employees, accountants, lawyers and tax preparers. For example, in Tinkoff v. U.S.

18. Tax Fraud: Off-Shore Asset Protection Actually, the list of potential offenses is quite long and includes tax evasion (IRC Sec. 7201),tax fraud and false statements relating to taxes (IRC. Sec. http://www.taxprophet.com/taxhound1/offshore.htm

Off-Shore Asset Protection Trusts Note: This article also appears in The Tax Prophet. Introduction The Off-Shore Asset Protection Trust is a new and potentially dangerous concept for tax officials throughout the world. In essence, these trusts are formed in countries with laws that deliberately violate the common-law concepts of trusts and creditors' rights. The goal is to attract wealthy individuals who are concerned about lawsuits in their respective countries. Unlike the trust scam artists, there are legitimate and respectable attorneys, accountants and financial advisors involved with off-shore asset protection. There is even a bi-monthly publication, the Journal of Asset Protection , published by Research Institute of America, that discusses the latest cases and techniques in the area. While honest advisors will stress there is no U.S. tax advantage to these trusts, once the funds are planted off-shore there is little the IRS can do to insure that proper tax reporting is occurring. To date, there has never been a U.S. case that has upheld an off-shore trust against the claims of creditors and no court has applied the laws of the foreign jurisdiction to prevent creditors from seizing the assets for a U.S. grantor. In fact, the courts have stated that to enforce the laws of a foreign country, when those laws violate settled U.S. law, is against public policy. The Mind-Set of the Typical Asset Protection Grantor In the typical case, a U.S. citizen (usually a doctor, attorney, accountant, stock broker, business owner or someone with a large liability exposure) will transfer assets to a trust established in a foreign country to avoid paying on a U.S. court judgment. To attract these investors, the foreign country will have enacted "asset protection" legislation, severely restricting the rights of creditors to recover against the investor in violation of settled trust law principles. In essence, the investor supposedly has placed his assets beyond the reach of the U.S. legal system to recover any judgments rendered against him. By using the laws of the asset protection jurisdiction, the theory goes, the investor has become judgment-proof (i.e. his assets have been placed beyond the reach of his creditors).

Tax Fraud Alert As we enter the 2003 tax-filing season, the North Carolina Department of Revenue has noted an increase in the number of individuals filing fraudulent returns requesting refunds that they are not entitled to receive. The processing of fraudulent returns takes valuable time and resources away from the legitimate returns that you file for your clients. You can help the Department during this tax season by looking for fraudulent tax information and returns. Watch for things that, based on your experience, appear to be suspicious. Some examples of things to watch for include: W-2's from a company in your area that differ from other W-2's issued by the same company; W-2's from a company that you know was not in business during the tax year; Multiple refunds going to the same address for different taxpayers; Multiple returns requesting a refund for the same amount; Multiple direct deposits to the same bank account for unrelated taxpayers; Excessive deductions and expenses that are not properly documented;
