Can you be an anonymous whistleblower for the IRS? How to report tax fraud - AS USA
If you know or suspect that tax fraud is being committed and wish to let the Internal Revenue Service about it, you can choose to do it without compromising your identity.
The IRS has a Whistleblower Office that allows people to report suspected fraud, and they may choose not to reveal their identity if they so desire. There are various ways by which you can make a report.
How to report tax fraud
You can fill out Form 3949-A, which is available on the IRS website, or you can write a letter and send it to the IRS Whistleblower Office at the following address.
You can also use the IRS’s online reporting system, the IRS2Go mobile app, or by calling their office at 1-800-829-1040.
When filing a report, it is important to provide as many details as you can, including the name and address of the person or business you suspect of fraud, the type of fraud you think they are committing, and whatever evidence you may have.
If you wish to file your report anonymously, the IRS will not reveal your identity, unless required by law or court order. Keep in mind that making a false report can result in penalties, so provide the most accurate information that you can to the best of your knowledge.
