Warning number one: The IRS does not initiate contact with individuals by calling. They always send a formal letter on IRS stationary when contacting anyone regarding unpaid taxes.
So, if anyone calls you claiming to be the IRS, ask for a telephone number. Tell them you’ll call them back. Better yet, tell them you’ll have your attorney call them back.
Warning number two: the IRS does not threaten, intimidate, nor do they use aggressive language.
IRS tax scams are reaching epidemic proportions. I get calls every week from clients and prospective clients saying that the IRS has called them threatening arrest, seizure of assets and worse.

In a recent article, I wrote about the highly controversial Civil Asset Forfeiture program, which allows the IRS to monitor and seize the assets of small businesses and individuals without ever having to prove they were in any way involved in criminal activity. Initially originated as a way to target alleged terrorists and tax evaders, the IRS decided to target anyone who makes a series of small deposits in a relatively short period of time that adds up to $10,000 or more.
All financial institutions in the U.S. are required by law to fill out forms and submit them to the IRS alerting them to this type of activity.

St Genevieve, MO, December 10, 2014:Tax resolution attorney Lance Drury, founder of the Law Firm of Lance R. Drury, and best selling author of “Successonomics” posted a new article on the LANCE DRURY LAW website entitled “How to Make an IRS Tax Lien Disappear as Though It Was Never There.” Surprises are not always good, especially when it’s an IRS tax lien. According to Drury, “You could have an IRS tax lien attached to your business or personal assets and not even know it.”
Here’s why.

You could have an IRS tax lien attached to your business or personal assets and not even know it. Why? Because the IRS notifies taxpayers after they’ve filed the lien. Once the IRS has filed the lien with the county you live in, then they will send you a Notice of Federal Tax Lien. The lien then becomes effective ten days after the IRS issues a written demand for payment of outstanding taxes.
So, those who know they owe the government taxes may not be surprised to find out they have a tax lien. However, many unsuspecting people are in the dark about how and why the lien is attached and what to do when they find out.

Law abiding, small business owners and ordinary citizens must be increasingly cautious to avoid getting into trouble with the IRS. For the last few years, the IRS has been implementing a process referred to as “civil asset forfeiture” to seize bank accounts and other assets. Originally created as a way to track the cash of criminals such as drug traffickers and terrorists, the IRS has turned their sights to average business owners even though they have no criminal records, nor have they committed any serious crimes.
Once the IRS seizes an account, they can take the money without filing a criminal complaint.

Most business owners would be thrilled if they could classify all workers as independent contractors. It would make their bottom line look much better. The savings in payroll taxes and benefits can be very tempting. No one is immune to trying to get away with misclassifying workers. Both, small businesses and large corporations, attempt to reap the rewards.
If you are looking into the distinctions between classifying workers as employees or independent contractors, proceed with caution. An incorrect classification could result in having as many as six government agencies coming after your business for back taxes, back salary, fines and benefits.

Don’t do it. This happens to be one of the most common mistakes many business owners make today. In an attempt to get away with not paying payroll taxes they intentionally misclassify certain people who do work for their businesses as independent contractors. Be very careful before deciding who is and who is not an independent contractor. It could cost you tens of thousands of dollars or more in heavy penalties, fines and back taxes owed to the IRS. The IRS does not like to lose money. So when they see independent contractors, it is like an open invitation to initiate an audit.
