*2.  IRS, Security Summit launch summer series to help tax pros protect clients from identity theft*

________________________________________________________________________

With new scams emerging constantly, the IRS and its Security Summit [ [link removed] ] partners kicked off a special summer Protect Your Clients; Protect Yourself [ [link removed] ] campaign this week to help tax professionals protect themselves against new and ongoing threats involving tax-related identity theft and to raise awareness about data theft in the tax professional community. This campaign, which includes a series of five news releases, is part of the larger effort by the Security Summit coalition—that includes the IRS, state tax agencies and the nation’s tax community—to battle tax-related identity theft. Week one’s release focuses on renewed warnings to tax professionals to stay informed of new and evolving schemes aimed at stealing business and taxpayer information.

*3.  News from the Justice Department’s Tax Division*

________________________________________________________________________

An Illinois man who operated a tax return preparation business pleaded guilty to preparing and filing false individual income tax returns [ [link removed] ] for clients and for himself. According to court documents and statements made in court, Byron Taylor owned and operated We Are Taxes, a tax preparation business in Dolton, IL. Taylor claimed his business had over 25 years of experience preparing tax returns and boasted that “Everyone Gets a Check!” For many years, Taylor prepared and filed with the IRS false individual income tax returns for clients which included false deductions including medical and dental expenses, gifts to charity, state and local real estate taxes, and unreimbursed employee expenses. Taylor also included false business losses. In addition, Taylor filed or attempted to file false individual income tax returns for himself for tax years 2017 through 2021. On these returns, Taylor substantially underreported income received by We Are Taxes or failed to report the business entirely. Finally, Taylor filed multiple false Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan applications for several businesses he claimed he owned and operated. In total, Taylor caused a tax loss to the IRS of $914,745.
