Washington, D.C. The Dutch national Frank Butselaar was charged today with conspiring to commit tax fraud over a period of more than seven years, and the Joint Chiefs of Global Tax Enforcement (J5) applauded this development.
Butselaar advised wealthy DJs and clientele in the fashion business who had incomes varying from coast to coast. Millions of dollars were earned annually by his clients, who at some point became U.S. tax residents and were therefore legally required to pay U.S.

taxes based on their global income. Together with other experts, Butselaar developed a plan to illegally hide millions of dollars in income that customers were receiving from sources outside the country while they were tax residents in the United States. Butselaar was brought back into custody in Italy earlier this week after the United States’ request for temporary arrest for the purpose of extradition was granted. He had been arrested earlier this year after making the request.

“Behavior such as that of Mr. Butselaar, which spans several years and involves numerous clients, is not by happenstance. Jim Lee, Chief of IRS Criminal Investigation, stated that “his deception cost U.S. taxpayers millions of dollars—money that would still be leaving the U.S. Treasury coffers were it not for the cooperation of the Joint Chiefs of Global Tax Enforcement.” “I don’t see how people can expect to get away with crimes like these when the J5 is working together with their expertise.”

However, Butselaar believed he was above the law. Special Agent in Charge of CI’s New York Field Office Thomas Fattorusso stated, “It is alleged that he ran this global fraud scheme to hide millions of dollars in income earned by his high-profile clients around the globe.” “Butselaar aimed to play the long game and employed a number of intricate strategies to continue this tax fraud over the course of several years; this wasn’t just a get rich quick plan. IRS-CI is a worldwide organization, and we are grateful to our J5 partners for their invaluable cooperation on this project. It’s time for Butselaar to pick up the tab.
