Hardly any complaints against the tax fraud portal

Baden-Württemberg's Finance Minister Danyal Bayaz certainly did not expect the harshness of the criticism at the time.

Its reporting platform for evidence of tax fraud should only complement current practice.

But the outrage seems to have only briefly been loud and violent.

Berlin / Stuttgart - After the sharp criticism and the Internet networks against the nationwide first online platform for information on tax fraud, the number of complaints has decreased significantly.

In the first few days alone, 743 insults, fake entries and threats were received on the portal, quote “Heilbronner Voice” and “Südkurier” from the Baden-Württemberg Ministry of Finance (Saturday).

In the past four weeks, however, there were only seven insulting submissions.
