    Default Business Tax Evasion

    I've become aware of a business that's been evading taxes for about 25 years in Maryland. This information was disclosed to me by an owner. I've been advised to report this to the IRS. I want some recommendations as to how do I do this should I decide to, would I need a lawyer? And I'd like some input on whether I should, would it be unethical not to? Should I just walk away?

    There is a big difference between the owner telling you that he has been doing this and you having some form of proof that he did. The IRS is not really interested unless you can provide proof of some kind. A person stating that he had committed tax evasion could well be just bragging about getting by with something. In and of itself, that is not proof that it occurred.

    Yes I agree that proof is needed, however who brags about something like that. That is not something to brag about nor is it something that should be ignored. The IRS should investigate; how do you feel about taking on the taxburden of everyone else? I don't know about you but I'm not interested in picking up that tab. I just need to find a way that someone who has authority will listen, this is not bogus information, I am a pretty good judge of that.
