Information Necessary to Report Tax Fraud
When a person has information regarding tax fraud, that individual may want to pursue a claim against the defrauder on behalf of the U.S. government. Under the law, a person is allowed to file a lawsuit against the defrauder if they have proof of tax fraud. In doing so, a whistleblower may be able to have this money returned to the federal government and may even receive a percentage of the money recovered for their efforts.
