I Think My Landlord Is Immoral and Is Stealing From the Government…?
Question by Candy: I think my landlord is immoral and is stealing from the government…?
I live in a rental house in the country. I have just bought a house and am moving out in a month.
My rent is 800 a month…the same as anyone would pay for a house like this.
My landlord is a social worker and drug abuse counselor. When I make out my check, I make it out to (his last name) Community Couseling Services. He told me this used to be a halfway house, when I asked him why the paint was three different shades of white.
So, then I learned that social workers can open up halfway houses and have the government pay for them. In North Carolina, at least.
I just researched the “Community Counseling Service” today, and it says it is a tax exempt, charitable organization that provides low-income temporary housing. I am living in this house and have never been addicted to drugs or, it is certainly NOT low cost OR temporary.
So, I think he had the government pay for the house and is making $ 800 a month off of this house, and that $ 800 is also tax exempt.
Am I right?
who should I report this to, if I should report it at all? I feel like I have been taken advantage of. I also feel like it is absolutely wrong to steal from the government because I provide services for the government and I don’t get paid enough because of people like him stealing money.
He ALSO listed his business name as his home address and listed his wife as the “person in charge”
If I knew for sure it was wrong, I WOULD “blow the whistle on him” because if it’s wrong, he knows it is wrong, and it is my job as a citizen to report people who are stealing from the government. Right?

Probably. Report it to IRS. They actually offer a percentage of the taxes they collect from scofflaws. There’s some form you have to fill out to get it, but you may make a little money on the deal.
