People Are Threatening to Report Sex Workers to the IRS in #ThotAudit

If it’s camgirls, they probably already are. That stuff gets automatically tracked.

I heard about that though :( I know sugar babies like to say their forms of sex work is better because they are technically receiving “gifts”

Some deserve to get harassed by the IRS lmfao

^ And then there's SJG, the scariest of them all.

Ugh the average type of dude that spends too much time on the net and has zero social skills is a real piece of work. That being said I don't think it is ok for a sex worker to not pay taxes. But they sure as fuck shouldn't be reported by loser boys that can't get any and live in mama's basement. ugh

Yeah I imagine sugar babies and prostitutes report the least. Strippers are gonna be more like waitresses who underreport tips but report enough to stay out of deep trouble. Remember strippers can write off almost anything beauty related, and showing some taxable income is important to those who care about credit.

As far as writing off anything beauty related idk. There's some old posts on another forum that stuff that a housewife would buy you can't write off. Even if you only buy makeup for this job and wear none in your day to day life. It is just hard to even prove that. So what we can write off is not that all-encompassing. Also lingerie I wouldn't write off. But shit that is obviously made as stripperwear fuck yeah I'm writing that off. Normal women don't wear blinged out bra and panties sets with that type of fabric (lycra? idfk honestly) and rhinestones and chains w/ random straps and shit.

the IRS’s stance on sex work is that “you should pay your taxes and we won’t tattle on your job unless it’s requested”...but the fact that there isn’t a guaranteed non-disclosure promise is scary enough.

I guess the main way to get around that, even if you do another form of sex work, is to just work at a club once a month and act like all your income is from them.

But I think it’s getting more difficult to circumvent the IRS anyways now. I mentioned camgirls earlier.

And also I know one club not too long ago had me sign something to acknowledge any funny money I turn in will be automatically reported from now on.

Another club, a staff member will ask at the end of the shift how much wants to be claimed. But most of us claim we made like $70 lol.

I consider myself a Michelangelo.

Well with camming it is all electronic no cash. You would be stupid to not report it. But yes 100% of it shows up on 1099 anyways. With cash businesses I guess people can act like they make nothing to pay no taxes and get all sorts of handouts they shouldn't be getting- but I wouldn't do that personally.

flagooner ur like a fabulous troll ok :D ur not in that category

:-)

This is why some folks propose doing away with the income tax and implementing a national-sales-tax (aka consumption-tax) so in theory everyone is paying taxes

^I always thought that was a good idea.

The counter argument is that the poor will be the ones who suffer the most from that. But I don’t really buy that too much.

The solution to that is for the government to pay everyone an amount to cover taxes paid at the poverty line. Then you would in effect pay taxes on consumption above that point.

I've long been an advocate of this, but it would undoubtedly create a huge black market. NO RACIST

^agreed

I think the danger in these reports is overblown. Not even the IRS has the resources to audit every one they get a tip about. Beside, from what I’ve heard, you have to fill out a form to actually report someone, and that form is long and detailed. There’s also the fact that the vast majority of “sex workers” are small potatoes compared to the people the IRS really cares about.

I’ve heard it sad that the chance of being audited like this is about the same as being randomly selected for an audit.

The Westboro-type of sect just displays again that they're whacking off by looking at internet pictures more than the rest of us, not less.

This phenomenon reminds me of that "jiggle counter" guy in North Mississippi in the 1970s who appointed himself to double-check how many times a woman's breasts jiggled on any national network show. Evidently "Three's Company" got a very high jiggle count. Thing is, the guy COUNTING the jiggles was probably more interested in them than most of the rest of America, which he CLAIMED he was trying to save FROM jiggles. Same as in this situation, the people scrolling through pages and pages and pages of internet ads to try to find sex-workers, probably know more about the sex-work scene in their respective cities, the prices, which girls are hot, whether there are more Blacks or Asians or Whites involved in it, than do most mongers. Guys who pay for sex-worker services just go about their daily lives, then engage in a transaction-based interaction, finding ONE provider for ONE transaction, and then go back to their daily lives. People who attend the Westboro-type churches, to the contrary, spend EVERY WAKING MOMENT in a virtual OBSESSION with sex work. They're TURNED ON by it, just the turn-on is not to FUCK, but instead to write reports. But you have to admit, it TURNS THEM ON.

"The only thing scarier than a bad person who doesn't follow the law is a bad person working with the law." Excellent comment. :)

Oh, the other issue with implementing a consumption tax is all the jobs that will be eliminated, many of which are paid for with fax dollars. Ironic?

^ yeah - I hate fax taxes - luckily I usually just use email

Fuck you

^ homo

Damn

Is flagoon getting taxes and faxes mixed up?

Why not just have a tip compliance for certain types of sex workers? IRS assumes you make so and so every month and taxes you based on that whether you made it or not?

Sugar babies aren't receiving gifts, technically, or otherwise, under IRS regulations. Secondly, if someone "gift" a SB 10,000 in a year that person is required to report it to the IRS and pay a gift tax. As I approach 36 years of divorce law the number of times threatening to turn someone in to the IRS in my career is well over 2,000, including judges, opposing counsel, me, my client, opposing party etc. The number of times I am aware an IRS audit occurred? Zero. If you report someone to the IRS, they will do nothing unless you supply them with actual evidence that can be used in Court. You would have to prove it to them by a preponderance of the evidence before they will audit anyone. It simply is similar to an 8 year old threatening to have their Dad beat up yours.

I gotta say Accounting was the 2nd most fucked up class I had to take at B-school. Managerial Accounting was worse.

Another legal technicality just FYI -- currently $9,000.oo is the "reporting limit." That's the amount (US dollars or equivalent) above which the bank (or any other linked-to-the-networks agency doing business legally in the USA) is required to report the transaction to the various authorities, IRS included. Under that amount, the transaction can essentially go "un-noticed" as long as it leaves little trail and no red flags are raised. Above that amount, all representatives have to fill out a "large transaction" (is that the right name?) form for the US government. So, bank tellers, cashiers, car dealers, home buyers and sellers, etc., all have to do that extra form for any occasion when $9,000 or more changes hands.
