PS ... True story which happened about two years ago.
Two IRS agents arrived to try and present extradition papers re a US citizen. The court wanted to hear what they had to say and prior to listening, wanted both to present their credentials (passport/ID/IRS creds etc).
During this examination of their papers, it turns out the passports were not the same one's they used to enter the country (duh??). Offense number one. Then, further checking... it turns out they used the same false passports to open serveral bank accounts in different names. (duh? duh?) This is a criminal offense number two.
The court ordered further enquiries into their activities since entering the country and meantime, they were permitted to walk. Both of them then skipped the country and back to the US. The court then issued arrest warrants for both of them if they ever set foot in the country again.
A month or so later, a newspaper caught up with one of the agents back in the US, a woman. She was asked, "Why did you open bank accounts using a false passport and fake ID?" Reply.. "I did not know it was illegal"
Wonder if they are still employed by the IRS?
