IRS Told 7-Year Old Boy He Owes Taxes
Raw Story
February 23, 2008
Police in a Chicago suburb say the Internal Revenue Service has told a 7-year-old boy he owes back taxes on $60,000 because someone else has been using the youngster’s identity to collect wages and unemployment benefits.
Officers in suburban Carpentersville said Friday the second-grader’s identity has been in use by someone else since 2001.
Detectives have filed a felony identity theft charge against 29-year-old Cirilo Centeno of Streamwood, Ill.
They accuse Centeno of using the boy’s personal information to collect more than $60,000 in pay and services while working three jobs. They say he also used the boy’s ID to buy a truck, pay bills and even collect unemployment benefits.
Now the taxman can bug your home and phone calls to catch payment dodgers

Tax inspectors have been given wideranging new powers to bug people’s homes and private phone calls.
They also have the go-ahead to intercept emails and plant listening devices in suspects’ cars and offices.
The move is the latest expansion of surveillance powers which, until recently, were only available to the police and intelligence services.
Revenue officers used to work to a set of strict rules that even banned them from looking in cupboards at a home or business during a visit without express permission.
But now officials investigating allegations of tax evasion can pry into every aspect of a suspect’s life in the hunt for evidence.
Senior revenue officials have been given the power to sanction the use of surveillance techniques under the same rules that govern the work of MI5, GCHQ and the police.
