From the daily Infragard news:
15. April 16, KUSA 9 Denver – (California) Former IRS agent arrested for stealing from tax customers. IRS agents in southern California on April 15 arrested a former IRS agent who now makes a living preparing people's taxes. Authorities accuse him of skimming millions of dollars from his customers. According to a federal indictment, the man stole more than $11 million that his clients owed to the IRS. Prosecutors say he did it by persuading customers to write a check to him for what they owed the government. Then, they said he would file a false return claiming little or nothing owed and pocket the money. In addition to the multi-million-dollar home, the indictment lists an airplane, boat, motorhome, trips to the Super Bowl, and other expenditures. If convicted, the man could face several years in prison and millions of dollars in fines.
