Unscrupulous tax preparers may tempt taxpayers into fraud

 Unscrupulous tax preparers may tempt taxpayers into fraud

Unscrupulous tax preparers and tax fraud promoters make big promises – and charge high fees – but taxpayers are legally responsible for what's on their return. Taxpayers should use only reputable tax professionals and know what is on their tax return. Although scammers are most active during filing season, they operate year-round, and taxpayers should always be on the lookout for these abusive schemes.

Employee Retention Credit claims - Taxpayers should be aware of aggressive pitches from scammers who promote large refunds related to the Employee Retention Credit. With ads all over the internet, social media and radio, fraudulent promoters try to con ineligible people to claim the credit. These promotions have false information about who’s eligible and how the IRS calculates the credit. Some of these ads exist solely to collect fees from the taxpayer or to take the taxpayer's personal info and steal their identity.

False fuel tax credit claims - The fuel tax credit is meant for off-highway business and farming use and is not available to most taxpayers. Unscrupulous tax return preparers and promoters are enticing taxpayers to inflate their refunds by erroneously claiming the credit.

Schemes aimed at high-income filers - These include schemes like abusing charitable remainder trusts and monetized installment sales.

Bogus tax avoidance strategies - This includes abusive micro-captive insurance arrangements and syndicated conservation easements.

Schemes with international elements - These schemes include a variety of tax evasion strategies including things like: 

Hiding assets in offshore banks, brokerage accounts, digital asset accounts and nominee entities or in accounts holding digital assets, such as cryptocurrency.

Attempting to avoid U.S. tax by contributing to foreign individual retirement arrangements in Malta or potentially other host countries. The participants in these transactions typically lack any local connection to the host country.

Participating in a purported insurance arrangement with a Puerto Rican or other foreign corporation in which the U.S. business owner has a financial interest. These arrangements lack many of the attributes of legitimate insurance.

The IRS will challenge the purported tax benefits from these types of transactions and impose penalties. The IRS Criminal Investigation Division is always on the lookout for promoters and participants of these types of schemes. Taxpayers should think twice before including questionable arrangements on their tax returns.

Poison Help doesn’t just offer advice after a poisoning event though, they believe the best way to prevent a poisoning is through education and awareness. 

This week, learn the best ways to prevent a poisoning from occurring in your family. 
Water Smart Weston
Proper Pool Barriers & Adult Supervision
Proper fences, barriers, alarms and covers can be lifesaving devices. A fence of at least four feet in height should surround the pool or spa on all sides. The water should only be accessible through a self-closing, self-latching gate. Teach children to never try to climb over the gate or fence. Install a door alarm from the house to the pool area, and keep pool and spa covers in working order.  

Proper pool barriers DO NOT substitute for adult supervision. There should always be a Water Watcher when children are around water.
