NOTE TO KENNETH KIES: DON'T OPEN YOUR OWN FED-EX PACKAGES
June 24, 2008
This is a dazer:
Kenneth Kies, a Washington tax lawyer and lobbyist whose firm has been paid $540,000 by UPS since 2002, sent Ohio officials a 562-page report in December 2006 alleging that FedEx misclassified truck drivers as contractors. A copy of the report, including a cover letter in which Kies asked for confidentiality, was released to Bloomberg News by Ohio officials.
So much for the confidentiality thing.
With the new federal mandatory award system for big-dollar tax informants, this could very well catch on. Shaft the competition and get paid by IRS - where do you sign up?
