Krystle Marie Reyes, 25, is accused of swindling more than $2 million from the state of Oregon.


An Oregon woman who allegedly received a $2.1 million tax refund after filing a false claim has been caught following a $200,000 spending spree.

Krystle Marie Reyes of Salem was arrested Wednesday for what is believed to be the largest case of fraud in the state of Oregon.

The 25-year-old used TurboTax to falsely report wages of $3 million on her 2011 personal income tax return, according to an affidavit obtained by The Oregonian. Reyes used the software's tax calculator to claim a refund of $2.1 million.

This is only the tip of the iceberg. With e-filing, instant electronic refunds on debit cards, EITC and other refundable credits not requiring much documentation, tax refund fraud is big and growing. Free money$$$$
