Insurance companies are a joke. I hate it here. I worked at a certain restaurant for years who make an entire thing out of getting donations for St. Judes a few weeks a year. What are we donating for if people still get bills like this?

This isn't a bill from st judes but you should know you were just soliciting a tax write off for your company. That's why they do that stuff

The company doesn't get to tax write off other peoples donations.

[-] ezmack@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

They make a donation and use people's money to cover the cost

No. That isn't how it works either. Well they might use that to meet the pr pledge but that isn't the same as taking the deduction.

As I told the other person if you actual have any proof to back that up report it to the IRS and collect your bounty.

Yesh the article I linked mentions a tiktok/meme that went around 2 years ago probably where I got it. Basically misinterprets companies getting pr with a tax writeoff

Why don't you show me any proof otherwise if you know so much.

In fact if you have any proof otherwise why don't you send it to the IRS they pay actual bounties on actionable tips on tax evasion.
