You've never heard of it because that's not how it works, idk what they're on about. They could give her extra money to cover the taxes that she would owe on that tip, but that tip still has to be reported on her taxes, and her SSN is responsible for paying anything that her employer didn't withhold from her gross income. You can't just say, "no it's cool, actually my EIN is taking over this tax responsibility for her SSN." For a cash tip that your employer never touched, there's not even the usual withholding mechanism.
As far as whether or not she reports this tip as income - it would be incredibly stupid to not be super fucking thorough claiming every cent of your tips for a year in which you got publicity for a huge tip. It's very easy to submit snitch reports to the IRS; I did it myself a couple years ago for an employer that was fucking my husband around. If anybody in her life is pissy about not getting a piece of that $10k, it would only take them a few minutes to report her.
