It is surprising how many people don't realise that the tax authorities read the press too.
I remember back in 1974 the owner of a whelk stall that was demolished in a car accident in Dagenham pub car park proudly boasted to the Dagenham Post that he wouldn't be put put of business as he had another stall in a different pub. We didn't know about the second one and the poor fool wound up with a back duty investigation.
