I suppose they should be reported for stealing, but tax fraud (not a lawyer but this happened to a friend recently) because if you were employed by them they had to deduct that money, and if they kept your paychecks then they didn’t deduct tax money for an employee, and that’s lying to the IRS about financial information, which (again, not a lawyer) but sounds a lot like fraud

It’s too bad the statute of limitations has long since passed because I would have loved to see those fuckers in jail.
