Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in California
I completed and filed a tax return for a friend of mine using information she provided. Now I it appears that she provided me with untrue information for some areas of the return giving her a refund amount she wasnt entitled to. She never recieved her refund and now she is accusing me of taking her refund and even filing her information fraudulently without her permission. I havent been charged with anything yet but she has gone to the police and Im sure it will only be a matter of time before the police will come to see me. What do I do to protect myself?

You should consult with a local criminal defense attorney, preferably one who is knowledge in tax fraud.
Good luck.
