Britain’s top tax cheats are being publicly named and shamed in the HMRC’s bid to get people thinking twice before trying to evade taxes.

Over 30 of the UK’s top tax cheats are being publicised online on photo sharing website, Flickr, as part of the Revenue’s current Tax Evasion Campaign.

The top tax cheats from 2012 were also sentenced to a combined total of 155 years and 10 months behind bars.

David Gauke, Exchequer Secretary to the Treasury, said: “Most people play by the rules and pay what they owe, but HMRC is cracking down on those who don’t.

“We hope that publishing these pictures will help get across that it always makes sense to declare all your income, and tax dodgers are simply storing up trouble for the future.”Take a look at HMRC’s top tax criminals of 2012 here.
