Colorado Springs Man Accused Of Tax Fraud
DENVER (AP) - A 51-year-old Colorado Springs man has been indicted on charges of identity theft and fraud after he was accused of collecting more than $172,000 in fraudulent tax refunds.
The U.S. Attorney's Office says Randall Heath is being held in New Mexico on state fraud charges and is expected to return to Colorado to face federal charges.
The indictment alleges that Heath got personal information of clients from College Consultant Group, Inc. after the business had ceased operations.
Authorities say he used the records to produce counterfeit driver's licenses and counterfeit government photo identifications.
