Tax Fraud Alert The Department of Revenue identified a number of unscrupulous tax return preparers during the last filing season. These individuals prepared fraudulent returns that allowed their clients to receive larger refunds than they were legally entitled to receive. Often these returns contained fraudulent information that was included without the knowledge or consent of the client. You should always review your completed return with your tax professional. If you do not understand the information on your return or, if you see information that is not correct, question your preparer to satisfy your concerns. If you are not satisfied with the response, notify the Department of Revenue. Some things that you should watch for include: Federal and State refunds that are significantly larger than you have received in past years; Inflated itemized deductions listed on Schedule A of your federal tax return, including medical expenses, contributions, mortgage interest, and unreimbursed employee expenses such as education, uniforms and tools, and mileage; Improper losses from the operation of a business claimed on Schedule C of your federal return;

Tax Types of white collar crimes White-collar crime is a term that is usually applied to crimes associated with business that do not involve violence or bodily injury to another person. Examples of so-called white-collar crimes are those crimes generally associated with lending institutions which involve bank fraud, such as making false statements to obtain a loan, filing false reports or returns with government agencies, embezzlement, using the mail or wire communications to defraud, and paying or accepting bribes. White-collar crimes may be prosecuted in state or federal courts, depending upon whether state or federal laws have been violated. The penalties for committing white-collar crimes vary, but in some cases they may be as severe as those prescribed for violent crimes. If you are questioned by a law enforcement officer or another governmental agent about possible criminal conduct, it is wise to talk with an attorney before answering any questions.

When the FBI has completed its investigation, it forwards its case to the local U.S. Attorney's office, and the local office determines whether to prosecute or not.

You are in: CRIMINAL MIND/ LEONA HELMSLEY: "THE QUEEN OF MEAN" By Rachael Bell Tax-Fraud Troubles Dunnellen Hall, arial photo In 1983, real estate tycoons and hoteliers Harry and Leona Helmsley bought the weekend retreat of their dreams. The newly acquired 21 room estate, known as Dunnellen Hall, was situated on 26 sprawling acres in  Greenwich Connecticut . The cost of the enormous house and surrounding property was a staggering $11 million. Although the property was beautiful by most standards, the Helmsleys decided that they wanted to make changes and a lot of them. Several years of remodeling and redecoration went into the house, totaling some $8 million dollars. It was an outrageous sum of money they were reluctant to pay, despite the fact that they were worth well over a billion dollars. They were even more hesitant to shell out the taxes due on the extra expenditures. Instead of paying up, the Helmsleys chose to take an illegal route. Greed would eventually get the better of them. During and following the work on the house, a group of contractors, including decorators, gardeners, painters and landscapers, attempted to collect on the money owed to them for their hard labor and materials. To their dismay, they learned that the Helmsleys were unwilling to pay the bills. Leona claimed that much of the completed work was inadequate and they were being grossly overcharged. Angered and frustrated, many of the contractors were forced to file suit against the Helmsleys. Leona and Harry eventually settled some of the outstanding debts but by then it was too late.Â

There is a lot of bad advice being given to good people. But, you must protect your money by educating yourself before you seek the advice of tax professionals. This article is directly from the Internal Revenue Service, on it's website it is followed by the jail terms given to many everyday citizens who did not educate themselves in the area of taxes and relied on the wrong people for advice. "Caveat Emptor" this principle of commerce applies to the services and products you buy to complete your tax returns. Whether you are doing your own tax returns or having someone else do them for you, protect yourself by learning about the latest frauds and hoaxes. In the last few years the Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigation (CI) has detected a proliferation of abusive trust tax evasion schemes. Currently, there are two prevalent fraudulent schemes being promoted: the "domestic scheme" and the "foreign scheme." The domestic scheme involves a series of trusts that are formed in the U.S., while the foreign trust scheme is formed offshore and outside the jurisdiction of the U.S. The trusts involved in the schemes, either foreign or domestic, are vertically layered with each trust distributing income to the next layer. The result of this layered distribution of income is to fraudulently reduce taxable income to nominal amounts. Although these schemes give the appearance of the separation of responsibility and control from the benefits of ownership, these schemes are in fact controlled and directed by the taxpayer.

The Color of Money Quick Quotes Look Up Tables Portfolio Index Tales of Tax Fraud Are a Hoot, but the Penalties Are No Joke By Michelle Singletary Thursday, April 1, 2004; Page E03 To mark April Fool's Day, I want to highlight some of the foolish people who try to slip the most outlandish tax deductions past the Internal Revenue Service. William E. Philbrick, a certified public accountant and former IRS revenue agent, has seen quite a number of creative tax deductions. Philbrick said the woman took too literally the IRS 1040 instructions for a qualifying dependent. For you to claim a dependent on your tax return, five tests must be met. The person has to be related or have lived in your household all year and can't have filed a joint return (unless to claim a refund, and no tax liability would exist). The person must be a U.S. citizen or resident alien (or a resident of Canada or Mexico). The person's gross income can't be more than $3,050 (with some exceptions), and you must have provided more than half of the person's total support. Philbrick said the woman, using the dependency tests, reasoned that her dead parents hadn't filed a tax return, they weren't being claimed by anyone else, they were related to her and they didn't have any gross income. The woman even went so far as to produce a perpetual-care contract and claimed, "I provided 100 percent of their support," Philbrick said.

The Canadian Tax Fraud Scandal Note: this page is reprinted from Sidney Schwartz's "Amway: The Untold Story" website, which had recently been taken down. Amway: The Untold Story The Canadian Fraud Case Here are some of the details on the Canadian fraud case. This information is taken, with permission, from "Organizational Deviance in the Direct Selling Industry," By Carol Juth, Ph.D. Dr. Juth was a sociologist and an expert in corporate criminology. There are a number of magazine articles that contain much of the same information, but I decided to use Dr. Juth's material because it's more complete and concise, and it contains excerpts from the court documents in the case. For those who would like to confirm this information for themselves, though, the articles would probably be easier to find, so here's a partial list: Amway Cracks And Pays, Maclean's 11/21/83 Extradition And The Amway Case, Maclean's 9/19/83 Amway Fined $25 Million In Canadian Fraud, Christianity Today 12/16/83 Amway, Canada Reach Settlement In Customs Dispute
