So say
    #7885857 - 01/15/08 09:00 PM (16 years, 17 days ago)

You worked with someone with 6 kids. Come tax time she approaches you and asks if you want to claim 2 of her kids on your taxes. You'll get back $6000... all she asks for is half. Her husband is in jail and she provides you with a letter written by him stating the children can be in your care while he's incarcerated.

You and a friend agree, submit taxes, get money, give the mom half, and enjoy your free $3000. The mom quits the job you and your friend worked at, never to be seen again.

A year and a half later we get a nice letter from the IRS. Stating we need to prove these kids were in our custody. The letter from the dad? The IRS agent on the phone had to stiffle laughter when you told them that's all you have.

So you play it safe, say sorry you've since been estranged with the mom and children and aren't able to provide the documentation. And face a debt to the IRS of that's climbing towards $7000. IRS interest rates are CRAZY.

So, what does one do in this situation? Bite the bullet and pay it back, probably end up paying $7500 for the original $3000 you got... or give yourself up and try to bring the mom down for the con artist she is?

dont try to bring the mom in because she will rat you out so quick.. and you'll prob get more than she will..

tell them it was going to be long term, but she just up and left one day leaving you none the wiser..

you'd have better luck getting to the bottom of it if you look into the legality of having custody of the kids. I don't know how it is in the states but unless you have to be a legal relation to claim a dependent (unlikely) all that should be needed is the woman to verify that the children spent time in your care or anyone who could verify it. Once you know the legality of the dependent you should contact the woman since she's the best alibi er witness, even then just to get the story straight. The IRS agent should have told you what sort of information you would need to retrieve to prove the child was a dependent of you.

However you might be best off to pay the fine I'm not sure if the IRS will snoop around about it because it doesn't sound like a lot of money.
