Tax fraud involves intentionally falsifying information on tax returns or evading taxes through deliberate deception, such as lying or keeping dual records. It differs from tax negligence, which stems from careless errors without intent to deceive, leading to milder penalties like a 20% fine. Severe consequences for fraud include hefty fines, imprisonment, and restitution.

In this video, Karlton Dennis breaks down exactly how tax fraud works, and all of the key information taxpayers need to know about it. This includes five different types of tax fraud. He goes into detail about each of these types of tax fraud, as well as how taxpayers can avoid accidentally committing tax fraud.
