Detection has improved; However, Identity Theft Continues to Result in Billions of Dollars in Potentially Fraudulent Tax Returns - Report #: 201340122fr
The Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration issued a report on identity theft and tax refund fraud. While detection of identity theft has improved through expanded identity theft filters and account locks, identity theft still results in billions of dollars in potentially fraudulent tax refunds each year. The IRS is taking additional actions to address identity theft such as clustering returns, developing leads from the Identity Theft Clearinghouse, and expanding cooperation with law enforcement. However, more remains to be done to prevent the issuance of billions of dollars in fraudulent refunds resulting from identity theft.

The IRS annual “Dirty Dozen” list of tax scams 2013, the list includes the most common scams that taxpayers might encounter at anytime during the tax season. The list is advising taxpayers to be aware of identity theft, phishing scams and several other red flags that can cause financial mayhem.
The IRS offshore disclosure programs were created to bring those with unpaid taxes from their offshore accounts to rectify their errors. Intentional or not, the offshore voluntary disclosure programs (OVDP) still hit individuals with penalties ranging from 27.5-50%, but they are protected from further audit and criminal liability. The OVDP protects taxpayers from possible criminal charges stemming from tax evasion or concealing tax payment, filing false returns, and failing to file income tax returns.

Paying taxes is bad enough, but falling prey to a tax scam can be even worse. Many of the same tax scams crop up year after year, ensnaring new victims every tax season. Being aware of potential pitfalls can make filing taxes easier and keep you out of trouble with the IRS.
Whether you are getting ready to file your taxes or still gathering the required paperwork, you need to be aware of these common tax scams. Doing your homework ahead of time can protect you from scams and questionable tax dodges as the April 15 tax deadline approaches

Electricity theft detection and localisation in unknown radial low voltage ne...eSAT Journals
Abstract The distribution of electricity involves both technical and non-technical losses. One major cause of non-technical loss is the illegal abstraction of electricity which is also known as ‘Electricity Theft’. The illegal usage of electricity has many associated problems, both for utilities and consumers of electricity, implying that there is a pressing need for theft detection and localisation. Traditional methods of identifying illegal electricity consumers are time consuming and ineffective as measurements have to be performed at a large number of suspected locations. Smart metering in future electricity networks will lead to a more efficient automated system for the detection and localisation of electricity theft. This will enable immediate action to be taken by distribution network operators against the offenders and will help to improve the quality, reliability and security of electricity supply systems. The aim of this study was to analyse the performance of an electricity theft detection and localisation technique in an unknown grid. The method assumed the availability of measured voltages, currents, and powers from installed smart meters. The detection step was a power comparison process and the localisation step was a voltage comparison process. The investigation involved analysis in the presence of single and simultaneous multiple thefts. To better represent future networks with increasing penetration of renewable energy generators, distributed generation was added to the system and the capability of the detection and localisation technique was further explored. All the simulations were performed in Matlab/Simulink. It was found that the method performed satisfactorily, with a minimum stolen power of 450 W successfully detected and localised.

While innovative new technologies have been very efficient in combating traditional fraud, our research has found that digital technologies are also giving rise to new types of digital tax fraud: the increase in the number of e-filings of tax returns across geographies is driving new types of fraud using identity theft as the basis.
Another type of fraud taking shape is Zapping – using software programs to automatically skim cash from electronic cash registers (ECR) or point of sale systems.
Similarly, the growing usage of third-party payroll processors is opening up a whole new avenue of fraud where unscrupulous processors siphon off taxes due to the state.
Our analysis of these new digital tax frauds shows that inaction is not an option for tax authorities. We have modelled the evolution of tax fraud, taking into account new incidents of fraud enabled by digital technologies. Our findings are sobering for tax authorities. In a scenario where tax authorities continue to fight new tax fraud with conventional tools, we estimate digital tax fraud in the US will rise from $32 billion to $49 billion by 2020.
To combat this staggering scale of fraud, conventional methods are too slow for the digital age. Tax authorities must move away from an incremental, piecemeal approach to a much more comprehensive transformative line of attack with a long-term vision, roadmap and multifaceted solutions involving people, processes and technology.
What is the impact of inaction of tax authorities to rein in new types of digital tax fraud? How can analytics be used as an effective weapon to fight against digital tax fraud.
Money Laundering in the Art, Collectibles, and Luxury Goods IndustryBrandonRuse1
Money laundering and fraud cases in the rare art and luxury goods industry are increasing as the gap between resources and budgets is being widened by COVID-19.
What is fraud?
A fraud is defined as a wrongful or criminal deception intended to result in financial or personal gain. "He was convicted of fraud" a person or thing intended to deceive others, typically by unjustifiably claiming or being credited with accomplishments or qualities.
What is Fraud Law?
In law, fraud is intentional deception to secure unfair or unlawful gain, or to deprive a victim of a legal right. Fraud can violate civil law (e.g., a fraud victim may sue the fraud perpetrator to avoid the fraud or recover monetary compensation) or criminal law (e.g., a fraud perpetrator may be prosecuted and imprisoned by governmental authorities), or it may cause no loss of money, property, or legal right but still be an element of another civil or criminal wrong.
The purpose of fraud may be monetary gain or other benefits, for example by obtaining a passport, travel document, or driver's license, or mortgage fraud, where the perpetrator may attempt to qualify for a mortgage by way of false statements.
Terminology
Fraud can be defined as either a civil wrong or a criminal act. For civil fraud, a government agency or person or entity harmed by fraud may bring litigation to stop the fraud, seek monetary damages, or both. For criminal fraud, a person may be prosecuted for the fraud and potentially face fines, incarceration, or both.

El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.
