The couple did not admit allegations against them. Besides agreeing not to violate tax and consumer laws, Kidantis and the franchisee company, Koraggio LLC, were also barred from making loans, such as holiday, instant cash or advanced products offered based on information obtained from customers' paystubs.
Tewolde and Kidanits, who operate several locations in Nevada, were alleged to have helped employees in their offices prepare returns with fabricated businesses and income, falsely claiming educating credits, and bogus filing status and dependents. They were also accused of selling deceptive loan products, filing returns without customer authorization and preparing fake W-2s from paystub information.
