[LINK] Fwd: AIC: Identity Crime and Phishing

[Adam Todd]

Actually, the Government has send a dangerous precedent.

When i sign my tax returns now I modify the declaration to read:

I declare the information provided in this document may be accurate and are 
provided to the best of my knowledge, understanding and interests in the 
information, however I can not accept responsibility for any errors that 
may be found by a third party.

Simple :)

The only thing I sign as true and correct is an Affidavit I write by my own 
hand!
