U.S. Files Lawsuit Against National Audit Defense Network - Legal News Watch: “U.S. Files Lawsuit Against National Audit Defense Network

Editor’s Summary:
The Justice Department on Wednesday filed a civil lawsuit asking a federal judge to issue a temporary restraining order against the National Audit Defense Network.

In court papers filed in a U.S. District Court in Law Vegas, the government said that NADN has sold fraudulent tax schemes, including phony web site businesses, to an estimated 100,000 customers, costing the Federal Treasury and estimated $324 million to date.

The Justice Department alleges that NADN runs a ‘tax-scam boiler room’ that sells bogus ‘web sites,’ home-based businesses, and ‘incorporation’ packages designed to help customers claim bogus tax deductions and credits.

‘People ought to use their common sense: the fact that a scheme is advertised on the radio or Internet, or sold by a large company, doesn’t make it legitimate,’ said Eileen J. O’Connor, Assistant Attorney General for the Justice Department’s Tax Division. ‘The Justice Department is striving to bring people who sell fraudulent tax schemes the response they deserve: injunctions, penalties, and-where warranted-criminal prosecutions.’

Also named in the suit were three other companies: ALR, Inc., which operates under the name Success Matrix Group; Free Trade Enterprises, which operates under the name Oryan Management; ADA Adventure; and thirteen individuals. The suit also asks the court to permanently bar NADN and four of the individual defendants from preparing federal income tax returns for others, and to order the defendants to turn over their customer lists.
