It is similar in all respects to that of classical VAT fraud. Hackers open an account in one of the European national registers which record transactions of CO2 emission allowances. Then, they buy rights in another country to firms who have. They move to the country where their account is domiciled, and then sell them, often through companies, on the non-regulated carbon through brokers cash markets. They then cash the VAT to the sale and "forget" to pay the tax. Final Act, fraudsters evaporate without leaving address with their cash.As intermediaries, "just looking, they host substantial commissions without themselves likely to be sued", says an expert. According to Europol, the structure which co-ordinates the European policies, the invoice amounts to approximately 5 of euros to the tax services of the countries that are victims. Worse, in some countries, up to 90 of the volumes of trade recognized with awards of CO2 were for these fraudulent activities.
The modified VAT rules
The first signs of the existence of this offence were discovered late 2008. The peak of the fraud would have been seen in May of this year, when several hundreds of millions of quotas have been treated in the French and Danish markets. The France, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom were soon to respond by amending the rules of the VAT of these financial products so special. The Spain went to the same effect but more recently. The adoption of the new regime ended in a slump, up to 90 of transactions. Europol entered in part by implementing, in collaboration with the Belgium, the Denmark, the France, the Netherlands, the Spain and the United Kingdom, a coordinated system of gathering information on the criminal networks involved. They would be set to "migrate" to other markets, those of electricity and natural gas, alerting the European police. "Europol puts too much emphasis in referring to this risk", rebelled a player as "solid barriers are put in place in the energy markets".
From our information, the financial brigade would have committed several investigations into who may have mistaken the French tax authorities. It refers to well known names of the VAT fraud customary purposes bloodhounds of annuitants Castle Street in Paris. At this stage, "Les echos" are not able to confirm these rumours. These investigations have not yet led to a visible result. Revel, seven suspects were arrested in August, but larceny for which they are prosecuted is about EUR 63millions. Obviously, in the United Kingdom, it is the account. In the meantime, the European Commission makes it also its stone in the fight against these if harmful practices in an era of soaring deficits. Its proposals, contained in a draft directive, have been approved by the Ecofin of the 2décembre and immediately transmitted to the Parliament in Strasbourg. If it is adopted, Member States may decide that the person liable for VAT on quota transfers will no longer service provider but its purchaser. If States chose for the regime of the reverse, it would be valid until June 30, 2015. For memory, the reverse charge means that the company calculates and declares itself the VAT due in respect of the delivery of a good or a service that it acquires duty-free from a provider established abroad. Thus calculated VAT is immediately recoverable, subject to the deduction of business rights. This scheme is General and mandatory in France since 1 September 2006.
