Monday Jul 01, 2024
Monday Jul 01, 2024
Richard Littrell is a special agent for the IRS. His primary duty is to conduct criminal investigations of individuals who have violated the federal tax code as well as related financial crimes such as fraud, money laundering, elderly financial abuse, illegal drug trafficking, and identity theft.
Shortly after joining the IRS, Richard was a lead investigator on the University of Kansas ticket scandal, in which several KU employees stole an estimated $2-3 million from the athletic department.
Prior to joining the IRS, Richard worked as an auditor at Deloitte. He earned his accounting, business administration and Masters of Accounting degrees all from the University of Kansas.
In this episode we discuss the following:
- As a special agent, Richard has dedicated himself to continuous learning. Criminals launder money through the Internet in countless ways, whether through cryptocurrency or the banking system, and Richard has to stay on top of all of it.
- As an IRS special agent, Richard helps keep the playing field level for all of us by holding criminals accountable for not paying their taxes.
- Richard's advice: "Look out for yourselves. Fraud is rampant. And look out for your friends, neighbors and family as well, to make sure they’re not being victimized."
