contribution scams are on the rise

Charitable contribution scams are on the rise, according to the IRS. One fraudulent tax scheme is sometimes marketed as “Charitable LLCs.” Unscrupulous promoters encourage high-income taxpayers to create limited liability companies (LLCs), deposit cash or other assets into them, and then donate a majority percentage of non-voting, non-managing membership units to charities. The promoters sometimes have control over the charities that receive the donations. The IRS is reminding taxpayers that a valid charitable contribution requires the taxpayer to give control over donated assets to qualified charities.
