IRS Urges Americans: Come Clean Now, Before We Read Panama Papers
What a f-ing joke!
----------------------------------------------------
IRS and Treasury officials have taken part in two global meetings on the Panama Papers to plan how to use the huge trove of leaked documents to catch criminals, U.S. officials revealed to NBC News.
In a statement to NBC News, the IRS acknowledged participating in a "special project meeting" of JITSIC, the Joint International Tax Shelter Information and Collaboration network, with their counterparts from around the world in Paris last week.
The IRS also encouraged any U.S. citizens and companies that may have money in offshore accounts to contact the agency now before any possible illegal activity on their part is identified.
According to media reports, the data about more than 214,000 offshore companies listed by Panamanian law firm contain information on potentially thousands of U.S. citizens and firms that have at least an indirect connection to offshore accounts affiliated with Mossack Fonseca.
