I hope when something happens to you you dont call the cops cuz thats the only time anyone appreciates one. I dont care what you do or dont think of me but fraud can be avoided by just using simple paypal or credit card in which case you can dispute the case and receive your money back. Its a federal offense and I believe a trade act offense.

Your reference to income tax deductions makes no sense - if what you say is true (and I recognize you are being sarcastic, as I was), then your net payment would be zero (earnings = taxes).
Second, I was referring to municipal taxes. Cities establish budgets, those budgets are met with a combination of tax revenues, services (including traffic tickets, parking, which are usually meant to offset the costs of police service, but since cities are so overleveraged these days, they have hired additional staff to write tickets to generate revenues in excess of costs) inflows from other levels of government and borrowing (municipal bonds). The budget for your division/department/station (whichever is the correct term) is set by the city. The city collects tax revenues from its residents, and through investors who purchase their bonds, and sometimes from federal and state level governments, as well as revenues from services (tickets). So my initial point that cops don't generally investigate allegations of fraud could generally be true; because none of those activities earns the city revenues (compared to say parking tickets).
