By Gary Bell, Director, Office of Refund Crimes, IRS Criminal Investigation - January 2004 The IRS wants to make return preparers and the financial institutions offering refund anticipation loans (RALs) aware of a growing fraud area that may affect you. There has been a significant increase in the number of fraudsters filing completely false returns based on bogus documents. This is being done for the sole purpose of obtaining illegal refunds, mainly in the form of refund anticipation loans so they can get the money as fast as possible. In these schemes, the fraudulent tax returns are being used as the vehicle for obtaining the loans which are the proceeds for the perpetrators of these crimes. When the RAL is paid by the financial institution, the fraudsters disappear, leaving the return preparer and the financial institution incurring a loan loss if the refund is not issued. And the vast majority of these fraudulent refunds are stopped by the IRS so the loans are never paid. This crime is increasing at a disturbing rate. Last year, one in every 966 e-filed returns was fraudulent. While just three years ago, that number was one in 4,789.

The vast majority of fraudulent e-file returns are being transmitted by practitioners who offer e-file. During the 2003 filing season, a total of 55,904 fraudulent returns were e-filed.

As a tax practioner offering e-file and RALs, please proactive due diligence and be on guard to stop fraudulent returns from ebing files through your EFIN.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE MONDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 2002 WWW.USDOJ.GOV TAX TDD (202) 514-1888 TAX FRAUD COMPLAINT UNSEALED AGAINST WASHINGTON, D.C. - The founder of a nationwide abusive tax shelter promotion scheme was charged today with conspiring to defraud the United States by organizing a group of accountants who used a variety of shell corporations, trusts and partnerships to operate tax shelter schemes they sold to their clients, the Department of Justice’s Tax Division announced today. Keith E. Anderson, founder of Anderson Ark and Associates was charged in a criminal complaint which was unsealed today in Seattle. Eileen J. O’Connor, Assistant Attorney General for the Justice Department's Tax Division, said, “By encouraging people to cheat on their taxes, promoters of tax scams defraud honest taxpayers many times over.” Assistant Attorney General O’Connor called on all taxpayers to report suspected tax fraud to the IRS. “Tax fraud promoters are like all con artists. If their sales pitch sounds too good to be true, it probably is not true.” The complaint alleges that from 1998 through 2001, Anderson Ark and Associates obtained more than $30 million in illegal tax refunds for between 1,500 and 2,000 clients and received approximately $50 million in fees and other funds from the clients.

Contact us Help Search Canada Site ... Media enquiries Repeat offender guilty of tax fraud Québec, Quebec, April 23, 2004... The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) announced today that Pierre Landry Électrique inc. pleaded guilty to accusations of tax fraud. This is the second such conviction for this Montmagny business. The CRA investigation showed that Pierre Landry Électrique inc. was using a fraudulent pay strategy (under-the-table salaries) for its employees. From 1997 to 2000 inclusively, the business paid overtime to its employees in the form of personal goods totalling $98,842 and failed to include the value of these goods in the calculation of the employees' salaries. The employees involved, therefore, eluded tax totalling $16,803. The Court of Quebec fined Pierre Landry Électrique inc. $25,204, or 150% of the tax evaded by its employees for 1997, 1998, 1999, and 2000. In its ruling, the Court took into consideration the history of the business, which had already been found guilty of similar infractions in the past. Individuals found guilty of tax fraud must pay, in addition to any fines imposed by the Court, all taxes owing plus any penalties and interest imposed by the CRA.

Media enquiries Surrey bookkeeper fined $22,725 for GST and income tax fraud Surrey, British Columbia, March 16, 2004...The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) announced today that Surrey resident, Charlene Lynn Miller, was fined $22,725 in Surrey Provincial Court for filing false income tax returns and failing to file GST returns. Miller was found guilty of three counts of making false statements on income tax returns for 1998, 1999 and 2000. The federal income tax Miller tried to evade was $40,255. Miller was also found guilty of one count of evading the payment of GST by failing to file GST returns in 1998, 1999 and 2000. The total GST that Miller tried to evade was $5,194. Miller provided bookkeeping services to a local company. As part of a routine CRA audit, she was questioned about the source of deposits to her personal bank accounts. Miller described the deposits as non-taxable casino winnings and loans. Further investigation revealed that the deposits were in fact taxable payments from her principal client. When individuals or corporations are convicted of income tax and/or GST fraud, they must still pay all taxes, interest, and penalties assessed by the CRA, in addition to fines imposed by the court.

Amazing Applications of Probability and Statistics Local hex time: Local standard time: Benford's Law Part 1 - How to Spot Tax Fraud Everyone knows that our number system uses the digits 1 through 9 and that the odds of randomly obtaining any one of them as the first significant digit in a number is 1/9. (First significant digit means we ignore zeros.) This works well for fake data generated with a random number generator or the type of data an embezzler would create. With naturally occurring data this generally isn't true. The odds of obtaining a 1 for the first significant digit of a number are much higher than the odds of obtaining any other digit as shown below: Digit Odds of Obtaining as 1st Digit (%) This rather amazing fact was discovered in 1881 by the American astronomer Simon Newcomb. Pocket calculators were not even a dream at that time. Calculations were made using pencil and paper. Books with page after page of logarithm tables were used for complex calculations. Newcomb noticed that the pages of the logarithm books containing numbers starting with 1 were much more worn than the other pages. After analyzing several sets of naturally occurring data Newcomb went on to derive what later became Benford's law. Newcomb was rewarded for his effort by being ignored.

Former Mississippi Abortion Practitioner Sentened for Tax Fraud Source: Biloxi Sun Herald, 11/10/99 BILOXI - The former operator of a Gulfport, Mississippi abortion facility was sentenced to five months in prison Monday for filing a false federal income tax return. U.S. District Court Judge David Bramlette also sentenced Joseph Booker Jr. to five months of house arrest, and ordered him to pay a $3,000 fine and back taxes. Under federal sentencing guidelines, he could have been sentenced to up to 16 months in prison. The 54-year-old Booker ran the Gulf Coast Women's Clinic, which performed abortions, until it closed last year. Booker pleaded guilty in July to filing a false tax return for 1994. Bramlette said that Booker reported $29,000 in taxable income for that year when he really made $121,000. He told the court that he didn't realize the discrepancy when he signed the tax return, which was prepared by a Jackson accounting firm. He told the judge he would lose his job at an abortion facility if he was placed in jail. "If I don't have a job, I won't be able to pay,'' Booker said. "I'd just like the chance to make everything right.'' But Bramlette said he had no choice but to imprison Booker considering the amount of money he withheld from the government.
