it was scary, wasn't it?

When IRS’s computer find there is a difference between their numbers and the number your “friend” reported, it will red flag the tax return and it will be inspected by a real person. When the discrepancy is small, the IRS will politely send your “friend” a letter and simply explain why the refund was denied. If the discrepancy is not “small”, it will most likely be audited by one of their field officers. If that’s the case, bring all the income/deduction proof for that year and have an interview w/ them. If the case is severe, and they believe your “friend” purposely lied on his tax return, they may request a full tax audit for the past 3 years to see if any more fraudulent tax activities exist or not. Then they will assess any possible further action to against your “friend”. If everything worked out fine at this yr’s audit, they believe it just a misunderstanding, your “friend” walk free maybe w/ some fine.

See, you have your rights to be anonymous on the Internet, and I have my rights to respect that anonymousity, thus I put double quote there to indicate it is not you.
