How do major tax fraud schemes work, and how do investigators prove them?
10 Major Tax Fraud Cases examines ten major cases involving billion-dollar tax shelters, offshore companies, secret bank accounts, trusts, false deductions, fraudulent refunds, and financial professionals.
The book covers Paul Daugerdas, Robert Brockman, KPMG, Walter Anderson, Bernie Ecclestone, Bradley Birkenfeld and UBS, Hervé Falciani and Swiss Leaks, Cum-Ex, Australia’s TikTok tax fraud scandal, and Leona Helmsley.
Using court records, indictments, government investigations, plea agreements, and tax authority materials, the book explains how the schemes operated, how money moved, how investigators uncovered them, and what courts ultimately established.
It also separates allegations from convictions, settlements from admissions, and aggressive tax planning from criminal fraud.
A documentary account of financial crime, offshore secrecy, tax evasion, and the evidence behind some of the world’s most significant tax cases.
