Scaffolding Company Owners Charged With $2.9 Million Under-The-Table Payroll Fraud, Reports U.S. Attorney PR Newswire
First, it is alleged that GOMEZ and GILDEA paid many of Lanco's employees cash 'under-the-table,' concealing this cash payroll from the IRS. From October 1997 through September 2003, GOMEZ and GILDEA paid Lanco workers at least $2.9 million in unreported cash.
Second, it is alleged that GOMEZ and GILDEA provided their workers compensation insurance companies with forged payroll records and forged 'copies' of their tax returns, thus reporting even lower payroll figures to the insurers than the already fraudulent numbers reported to the IRS.
Third, it is alleged that GOMEZ and GILDEA submitted false monthly payroll reports to the administrators of the Laborers' Union Trust Funds and Carpenters' Union Trust Funds, omitting many workers altogether and understating other workers' hours. These reports to the pension funds were backed up with forged 'copies' of Lanco's tax returns.------------------------------------------- posted 12:04 PM :: reference link ::
