Tax Frauds Can Be Curbed
CHICAGO AP Wide spread fraud in income tax returns prepared by persons other than the taxpayer could be curbed by simple precautions, says Seymour A. Rish executive secretary of the National Association of Enrolled Federal Tax Accountants. He urges the preparer to sign returns and include a Social Security number, for taxpayers to avoid signing blanks, to inspect the full return before signing, and to refuse to pay the preparer if they decline to sign. Taxpayers should not have refunds sent to the preparer.
