A Berkshire couple who ran a high-class chauffeuring service to acting stars have been sentenced for VAT fraud after an investigation revealed they had submitted fake invoices to HMRC as part of a bid to claim over £170,000. Tracey and Allan Bradshaw ran four businesses including Business Drive Ltd and Location Equipment Hire Ltd, providing car services for a variety of UK film studios. However, they failed to pay HMRC almost £31,000 in VAT they had charged their clients. The pair also submitted fraudulent VAT repayment claims of nearly £179,000 but were caught out when officers grew suspicious and began to look into their business records.
