Conscience Fund Payments Traced by IRS
The Internal Revenue Service says errant taxpayers who give anonymously to the conscience fund will be credited if tax agents ever locate them. The fund, about 10,000 dollars annually, holds payments from 10 cents to 2,000 dollars, with a notable case of a retiree who sent five 1,000 dollar bills and was traced, leading to an 11,000 dollar debt and a 16,000 dollar treasury check return. Officials note most contributions are not traced unless the amount is large and leads emerge.
