By Tod McDonald, CPA, CIRA. Fraud thrives on obfuscation. For decades, criminals have been exploiting the massive volume and complexity of financial data to steal and hide money. Accountants, comptrollers, auditors and investigators cannot review every movement of every penny across thousands of transactions and countless accounts. As a result, fraudsters can get away with even the simplest schemes.

The reason for such a bill has to do with the concept of “joint and several” liability. When a married couple files a joint tax return, each spouse is liable for the full amount of tax on the couple’s combined income.
