Mike Masnick ✅Literally swiping money from charities. Just straight up evil villain shit.
Noah Cook@mmasnick So, ummm, I know that IT is a lot less heavily regulated, but in these cases isn't there also the even bigger problem of lying on the various official statements, some surely to government agencies, regarding where various funds were being directed?
k_salberta@UncivilServant @mmasnick They have to do income tax for the co, but they don't file with the government on these contributions. The issue is that the employee won't have the receipt from Benevity listing the full amount of their deductions, so the employee can't use it as a charitable deduction.

If Benevity can't process a donation, the designated charity can't get it. It is the charity's receipt of gift acknowledgement that is needed for individual tax filings.
Both charities and donors are screwed in various ways by this new Avenue of wage theft.
