UPDATE: IRS Promises To Obtain Warrants Before Reading Emails

Posted by admin in Tax, White Collar Criminal on May 10, 2013

by Brian Mahany 4 weeks ago we wrote a post about an internal IRS search warrant manual that said agents did not need to obtain a search warrant in order to read a taxpayer’s email. This was especially troubling since a federal court of appeals ruled in 2010 that emails shared the same expectation of [...]

Posted by admin in Tax, White Collar Criminal on April 12, 2013

by Brian Mahany According to a recent story published by CNET, the IRS says it doesn’t need a search warrant to read your email.

Outrageous IRS FBAR Penalty? You Bet!

Posted by admin in Tax on January 22, 2013

by Brian Mahany A few months ago, a reader of Due Diligence wrote to us and said we were being “alarmist.” Many readers can’t fathom how the government can and will impose huge penalties against taxpayers with unreported offshore accounts.
