Lunn

A tax agent who lied to cover up incorrect returns submitted for clients has been convicted of six offences, under the Fraud Act after an investigation by HMRC.

Christopher Jonathan Lunn who worked at his father’s company, Christopher Lunn & Co, sent false invoices to the Revenue to cover up an increase in the amount charged for accountancy fees on behalf of his employer’s clients.

Clients were given one low-cost bill for accountancy services, but they were increased when their accounts were submitted to the taxman.
