Do it if you want to. Cause not everybody out here in these tax streets is qualified to get your social AND your gub'ment name. Fraud is a thing. And just because they say they "do taxes" does not mean they're qualified.
I do not care what the TV ads say.You think you're getting an accountant, CPA or a bookkeeper at H&R Block or Jackson Hewitt? Chile, BYE! It's called: Turn on a computer and input numbers into a software program and watch them spit out the results -- your refund.
Taxes are the newest hustle; er'rybody and their momma is doing them. If I see ONE MO person on Facebook or Instagram talking about they "do taxes, hit me up" I am going to scream.
You just need to hope like hell that Rashia Wilson, 27, of Tampa, Florida, had NOTHING to do with your tax returns.
Wilson, the self described "Queen of Tax Fraud," was convicted on Tuesday of stealing $20 million from the IRS and was sentenced to 21 years in jail, according to a story in the Daily Mail.
She was 'tax hood rich' -- with pictures on Facebook of her flaunting stacks and stacks of cash -- probably from victims after she did their taxes.
A life of crime
According to the Tampa Bay Times:
'She knew what she was doing was wrong. She reveled in the fact that it was wrong,' U.S. District Judge James. S. Moody Jr. said.
Now, it's bad enough that Wilson, a mother of three, bragged about her crimes on Facebook. She even taunted authorities before eventually pleading guilty to wire fraud and aggravated identity theft earlier this year.
'I'm Rashia, the queen of IRS tax fraud,' Wilson posted. 'I'm a millionaire for the record, so if U think indicting me will B easy it won't, I promise you! U need more than black and white to hold me down N that's to da rat who went N told, as if 1st lady don't have da TPD under her spell. I run Tampa right now.'
Wilson admitted to stealing $3 million but authorities believe she stole much more as part of a federal investigation which began in 2010.
The hustle
On taxpayers' backs, she went from a life of poverty to extreme wealth. She collected food stamps ad while using her tax frauds to support a super lavish lifestyle.
She spent $30,000 on her son's first birthday, bought a $90,00 Audi, splurged on designer handbags from Prada, Gucci and Louis Vuitton, and had a custom necklace with her name spelled out in jewels according to a media report.
In addition to her sentence, Wilson was ordered to pay $3.1 million in restitution with her co-defendant Maurice Larry, who is scheduled to be sentenced later this year.
Rashia is the tip of the iceberg. Too many folks out here doing dirt come tax time. Hide yo' socials and yo' kids' socials. Let's repeat this again, boys and girls: If somebody is trying to claim your kids on their taxes, speed walk away.
Only go to approved tax preparers, not your cousin Ray Ray.
And finally, if Ne Ne says that she'll do your taxes if you let her deposit a little sumthin' extra in your bank account, run like Usain Bolt.
