A new week, another fraud: The IRS Immigration Fraud Scandal

This is the fraud cocktail that combines the worst elements of corruption, fraud and ineptness. m/r

The American Spectator : The IRS Immigration Fraud Scandal

Rubio, Ryan losing credibility over amnesty as fraud issue returns.
Marco Rubio.
Paul Ryan.
The IRS.
Illegal immigration.
And fraud to the tune of billions..
Now there’s a combustible mix.
Let’s start with the IRS, illegal immigration and fraud. We’ll come back in a minute to Senator Rubio and Congressman Ryan.
For those who came in late, a year before the IRS scandals burst onto the scene in early May of 2013, an alert investigative reporter for WTHR-Indianapolis (Channel 13), Bob Segall by name, produced a stunning piece of journalism. Segall’s video report is found here and we will quote from his story for the basics. The tale begins when an Indiana tax preparer, who requests anonymity, comes to Segall to alert the investigative reporter to a major league tax fraud. The bold print for emphasis is mine.
“We’re talking about a multi-billion dollar fraud scheme here that’s taking place and no one is talking about it,” he (the tax preparer) said.
The scheme involves illegal immigrants — illegal immigrants who are filing tax returns.
How it works
The Internal Revenue Service says everyone who is employed in the United States — even those who are working here illegally — must report income and pay taxes. Of course, undocumented workers are not supposed to have a social security number. So for them to pay taxes, the IRS created what’s called an ITIN, an individual taxpayer identification number. A 9-digit ITIN number issued by the IRS provides both resident and nonresident aliens with a unique identification number that allows them to file tax returns.
