VAT Scammers Jailed for £8.8M Tax Dodge
Description
Four businessmen, involved in a £8.8 million VAT scam, were sentenced to prison in Edinburghs High Court. The scheme, run by Linear Services, saw the men pocket client VAT payments instead of remitting them to the taxman. The money was used to buy gold bullion and diamonds. The judge criticized their dishonesty, noting the funds were meant for public services but ended up funding luxuries. Sentences ranged from four to seven years.
