U.S. Attorney sues Nashville woman, alleges she misrepresented the incomes of at least 41 clients

The U.S. Attorney's office has sued a Nashville woman who prepares tax returns for a living, alleging she misrepresented the incomes of at least 41 clients.
Federal officials want to bar Karen Liane Miller and her staff from acting as tax preparers and engaging in illegal activity, according to a lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court here.

Miller claimed fraudulent refunds for clients that totaled more than $8.3 million, the lawsuit said. The Internal Revenue Service is in the process of recovering the money. Miller’s customers are also potentially subject to penalties, federal officials said.
