Good idea! Bad plan!

Spotted by YAME's vast and famously alert Seattle Bureau:
OCTOBER 17--Wesley Snipes has been indicted on federal criminal charges for his role in a bizarre tax avoidance scheme that allegedly included him seeking $12 million in fraudulent refunds and failing to file six years of tax returns. In an eight-count indictment unsealed today, Snipes and two others are charged with knowingly attempting to defraud the government by claiming that his substantial income was somehow immune to taxation.

Immune. Right. The Smoking Gun has the, you know, smoking gun.
