Question: Tax fraud case- Do u think he will face jail time?
A federal grand jury has indicted a Calhoun, Ga. tax preparer on charges of filing falsified tax returns to the Internal Revenue Service and obtaining $117,000 in improper tax refunds.
An Oct. 22 indictment accuses 31-year-old Wilson Ngure of falsifying income levels, withholdings and deducations while electronically filing returns for more than 30 taxpayers.
U.S. Attorney David Nahmias says taxpayers weren’t aware of false items on their returns. The indictment accuses Ngure of pocketing the improper tax refunds.
“Tax return preparers who knowingly prepare false returns for the purpose of stealing tax refunds will face federal prosecution and federal prison,” said Nahmias. “This defendant will now be confronted with the evidence that he engaged in an extensive tax fraud for the purpose of enriching himself and depleting the U.S. Treasury.”
