Tax evasion: Software firm founder Mcafee charged

Antivirus software entrepreneur John Mcafee has been charged with evading taxes after failing to report income made from promoting cryptocurrencies while he did consulting work, made speaking engagements and sold the rights to his life story for a documentary, prosecutors in Tennessee said Monday. A June indictment charging Mcafee with tax evasion and willful failure to file tax returns was unsealed in federal court in Memphis on Monday after Mcafee's arrest in Spain, where extradition to the US is pending, the US attorney's office said in a news release.
