Alabama Tax Shop Owner ARRESTED As IRS EXPOSES $177 Million Tax Refund Scheme & 9,000 Fake Returns
Federal prosecutors in the Southern District of Alabama have unsealed an indictment charging Jennifer Beverly, the 47-year-old owner of JB Accounting Tax Service LLC on Broad Street in Mobile, along with five employees—Jadasha Bowman, Kennedy Winston, Solida Green, Paris Lovett, and Shermeka Benjamin—in an alleged $177 million federal tax refund scheme. According to the Department of Justice, the storefront business filed more than 9,000 false federal tax returns between 2021 and 2024 using fabricated Schedule C business expenses, COVID-19 credits, fuel tax credits, and education credits, resulting in approximately $81 million paid out by the IRS. Former clients told NBC 15 News they could not get copies of their filings, with one woman stating, “I owe them $30,000 for something I didn’t agree to.”
How did a neighborhood tax shop on Broad Street submit more than 9,000 disputed returns over four years before federal investigators stepped in?
