  6. Offshore Account Evasion Schemes According to the IRS, an offshore account is any bank account in a foreign country or jurisdiction that offers American taxpayers financial secrecy. In short, these countries and jurisdictions attempt to attract foreign business investments by making it easier for foreign bankers to commit tax evasion.

Offshore accounts can be managed anonymously; many times, only the top officials of the bank know who is in control of the money.

  7. Tax havens are also used to avoid tax payments. A tax haven is a country or jurisdiction that provides foreign bankers (such as U.S. taxpayers) a tax-free or low-tax environment. Even the United States is considered a tax haven to some countries. Tax haven countries encourage foreign investors and may be used by taxpayers in various offshore tax evasion schemes.
