Napoleon L. Jackson, Tax Return Fraud, Kentucky 2023

Grimy Times

Louisville, Kentucky – In a shocking turn of events, Napoleon L. Jackson and his business NJ Mobile Tax Service, LLC have been barred from preparing federal income tax returns for others due to allegations of widespread tax return fraud. The United States filed a complaint in the U.S. District Court of the Western District of Kentucky, seeking a permanent injunction against the duo.

According to the complaint, Napoleon L. Jackson has been preparing federal income tax returns that improperly understated his customers’ income tax liabilities. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) audited 31 tax returns that Jackson prepared on behalf of 20 customers for tax years 2010 and 2011. An examination of these 31 returns resulted in an increase in taxes owed for every return, the suit alleges.

The complaint further alleges that Napoleon L. Jackson prepared at least 162 returns from 2010 to 2011, and continues to prepare returns today. Overall, the suit alleges that Jackson’s conduct may have cost the U.S. Treasury more than $800,000.

The IRS has identified Napoleon L. Jackson as one of the IRS’s Dirty Dozen Tax Scams for 2015. The agency has also launched a free directory of federal tax preparers to help consumers choose a reputable tax professional. In the past decade, the Tax Division has obtained injunctions against hundreds of unscrupulous tax preparers and tax scheme promoters.

Napoleon L. Jackson, and his business NJ Mobile Tax Service, LLC, will be permanently barred from preparing federal income tax returns for others if the complaint is successful. The case is a stark reminder of the importance of choosing a reputable tax preparer and the consequences of engaging in tax return fraud.

The case highlights the ongoing efforts of the Tax Division to protect taxpayers from unscrupulous tax preparers and tax scheme promoters. The agency will continue to work tirelessly to ensure that those who engage in tax return fraud are held accountable for their actions.
