You noticed something. Now what.

You know where the
numbers don't add up.
We know what to do about it.

US federal law mandates payment of 15–30% of all tax recovered when your information leads to IRS action. You don't need to be American — whistleblowers from over 130 countries have already filed claims. You don't need to be a hero. You don't even need to give us your name. We keep you invisible, our specialist advocate handles the legal process, and you keep 57% of the award.

Can my employer find out it was me?

+

No. Not through us — we never know your name. Not through the IRS — they are legally prohibited from revealing a whistleblower's existence under IRC §6103. Your employer sees an audit. IRS audits happen constantly. There is nothing in the process that indicates a human source, let alone identifies one. We've built this from the ground up so that your identity is never recorded, never transmitted, and never at risk.

I'm not in the United States. Can I still do this?

+

Yes — and you may be better placed than anyone. If you work for a multinational and you can see how money moves between jurisdictions, you are looking at exactly the transactions that generate the largest US tax cases. Since 2011, the SEC alone has received tips from whistleblowers in over 130 countries. The IRS saw 97 non-US whistleblowers in a single year. The largest individual whistleblower award in history — $104 million — went to a Swiss banker. US law does not care about your nationality. It cares about the quality of your information.

What if they work it out anyway?

+

They won't — because we structure every submission to make that impossible. We know what patterns reveal a source and we eliminate them. The IRS gets what it needs to act; your employer gets nothing that traces back to a person. But even in the vanishingly unlikely event that suspicion falls on you, the Taxpayer First Act provides federal anti-retaliation protection: your employer may not discharge, demote, threaten, or discriminate against you, with a private right of action in federal court.

Am I breaking the law by sharing internal information?

+

You're enforcing it. Reporting tax noncompliance to a federal agency is protected activity — it's the opposite of a leak. The documents involved — intercompany agreements, fee schedules, pricing structures — are evidence of tax obligations, not trade secrets. Courts have been clear on this. You're not a whistleblower because you stole something. You're a whistleblower because you saw something wrong and reported it through a proper channel.

The hardest part isn't knowing.
It's making the first move safely.

You could go directly to a US law firm. If you're American, living in America, and confident you can assess which firms are credible — that may work for you. But if you're sitting in an office in Frankfurt or Singapore or São Paulo, looking at transactions you know are wrong, you face a different problem entirely: how do you even begin?

You don't know American whistleblower law. You don't know which firms specialise in it. You don't know how to make an approach without creating a trail your employer's investigators could follow. You don't know whether the NDA you signed has teeth. You don't know whether your country's data protection laws complicate things. You just know that something is very wrong, and you have no idea how to act on it without putting yourself at risk.

That's what we do. We are the step before the lawyer. We provide a completely anonymous channel — no name, no email, no account, no registration — through which you describe what you've seen. We assess whether it's actionable under US law. We tell you exactly what evidence would strengthen the case, and how to obtain and transmit it without leaving a trace. We strip metadata, obscure source patterns, and build a case file that could have come from anywhere. Then we hand it to a specialist US tax advocate who files and manages the legal process through to resolution.

You never speak to an American law firm. You never enter the US legal system. You never put your name on anything until you choose to — and by that point, your identity is protected by attorney-client privilege, IRS confidentiality rules, and the distance we've built between you and the paper trail.

This isn't a reward. It's a right.

In 2006, the US Congress created a mandatory award programme for tax whistleblowers. The word in the statute is shall. Above the $2 million threshold, the IRS doesn't choose whether to pay — it is required to, by law. The amount — between 15% and 30% of everything recovered, including penalties and interest — is determined by the value of your contribution. If you disagree with the determination, you appeal to the US Tax Court. This is not discretionary. It is not a favour. It is a statutory entitlement.

26 USC §7623(b)(1)
"...such individual shall receive as an award at least 15 percent but not more than 30 percent of the collected proceeds..."

"Shall" — not "may." Mandatory upon collection. No cap. Appealable to Tax Court.

This applies to any person, of any nationality, anywhere in the world, reporting on any entity with US tax obligations. Every multinational that earns revenue in the United States, trades in dollars, or has American operations is within scope. Your company almost certainly qualifies. We'll confirm that in the first conversation.

The US isn't the only country
that pays whistleblowers. It's the best.

Several countries now offer financial rewards for reporting tax fraud and financial misconduct. But the scale, the legal framework, and the mandatory nature of US awards are unmatched anywhere in the world. Here's how the major programmes compare:

Country Programme Award Mandatory?
United States (IRS) Tax whistleblower — §7623(b) 15–30% of recovery Yes, by statute
United States (SEC) Securities fraud — Dodd-Frank 10–30% of sanctions Yes, by statute
United States (CFTC) Commodities fraud 10–30% of sanctions Yes, by statute
United States (DOJ) Corporate misconduct pilot Portion of forfeiture Discretionary
South Korea NTS tax evasion informant 5–20% of recovery Yes, above threshold
Canada Offshore Tax Informant Program 5–15% of recovery Discretionary
United Kingdom HMRC Strengthened Reward Scheme 15–30% of tax recovered Discretionary
United Kingdom CMA anti-cartel Up to £250,000 Discretionary
Slovakia Whistleblower protection act Up to 50× minimum wage Discretionary
EU member states EU Whistleblower Directive Protection only — no awards N/A

The difference is stark. US programmes are mandatory, uncapped, and proportional to recovery. A $50 million tax case at 15% yields a $7.5 million award — by law. The UK launched a new HMRC reward scheme in November 2025 offering 15–30% — but awards are discretionary, anonymous reporters are excluded from payment, and no rewards have yet been paid. Canada's programme has paid out just over $1 million in total since 2014. South Korea's is real but capped lower.

If the company you work for has US tax obligations — and nearly every significant multinational does — the US programme is almost certainly your strongest option, regardless of where you live. We can help you determine which US programme applies to your situation, and whether your country's own programme might also be relevant. In some cases, the same information could qualify under multiple programmes.

We take 10%. Your advocate takes 33%.
You keep 57%.

Our advocate — a specialist US tax attorney — receives a standard contingency fee of 33% for filing and managing the legal process through to resolution. We take a 10% platform commission for anonymous intake, case preparation, and connecting you with the right advocate. You keep 57% of the award. No upfront cost. No fee if there's no recovery.

Compare that to going directly to a US whistleblower law firm, which would typically charge 30–40% contingency:

Route You keep Fees Anonymous intake?
Quieter Signal 57% 10% platform + 33% advocate Yes — fully anonymous
Direct to US firm 60–70% 30–40% attorney No — you identify yourself
File alone (no attorney) 100% None No — Form 211 requires signature

Going direct saves you 3% — if you can find the right firm, navigate the US legal system, assess their credibility, and make the approach without creating a trail. If you're outside the United States, that "if" is doing a lot of work. Our 10% is the cost of never having to do any of it. We find the advocate, we build the case, we keep you invisible. Filing alone saves you everything — but Form 211 requires your original signature under penalty of perjury, with no anonymity, no case preparation, and no one in your corner when the IRS has questions.

Tax implications

A non-US person receiving a large payment from a US government programme may have tax obligations in both jurisdictions — US withholding tax and home-country income tax. You should obtain independent tax advice on the treatment of any award in your jurisdiction. We do not provide tax advice.

You don't need to steal anything.
You don't even need to be right.

You need to know your company's structure well enough to point at the transactions that don't bear scrutiny. That's it. The IRS has subpoena power, treaty-based information exchange, and the ability to compel production of any record it needs. We know exactly what is necessary — we will make absolutely sure the IRS is given everything it needs to choose to act.

Your side of the deal is to work with us, over a secure channel, to do this right.

You might recognise the patterns already: intercompany licensing fees that don't reflect real value. Management charges between subsidiaries with no underlying service. Loans between related entities at rates no third party would accept. Intellectual property parked in low-tax jurisdictions with no operational presence. Revenue routed through entities that exist only on paper.

If you've seen the internal schedules and thought that can't be right — it probably isn't. And you probably know enough for us to build a case. We know what the IRS needs to see, how to present it, and how to get them to move. What we don't have is your eyes on the inside.

Not sure whether what you've seen counts? Read this — it probably does.

Five steps. You do one of them.

01

You make contact — safely

Read our security guide first. Then, from a clean device on public wifi, open a secure channel. No name, no email, no registration. Tell us about the company and the transactions. We'll ask the right questions — we know what matters and what doesn't. It doesn't matter what country you're in.

02

We assess and build the case

We evaluate the claim, identify the tax exposure, determine which US programme applies, and build exactly what the authorities need to see. We may ask you for specific supporting detail — a schedule, an agreement, a fee structure. We'll tell you precisely what to photograph and how. Nothing is guesswork.

03

Our advocate files with the IRS

Our specialist US tax advocate prepares and submits a formal whistleblower claim — constructed to maximise the probability of action. The submission is structured to obscure the source entirely. Your identity is disclosed only to the advocate, under attorney-client privilege, when you're ready.

04

The IRS investigates

This takes time — typically 3 to 7 years. The advocate manages the case throughout, responds to IRS enquiries, and we keep you informed through the secure channel. You are not required to do anything further. Go to work. Live your life. Nothing changes.

05

You get paid

When the IRS collects, the mandatory award is calculated and paid into the advocate's trust account. Your 57% is transferred to the account you specified. The law says shall. They pay.

We don't take cases we can't win. If we proceed with your claim, it's because the information warrants it — and every one of us is investing on that belief. We take the smallest share because our value is in making the connection possible at all. The advocate stakes their reputation and their time. You provide the knowledge that makes everything else work.

Tax fraud isn't the only thing
US law pays you to report.

If the conduct you've witnessed involves securities fraud, bribery of foreign officials, commodities manipulation, or fraud against the US government, there may be additional or alternative programmes that apply. The SEC whistleblower programme alone has paid out over $2 billion since 2011 — including a single award of nearly $279 million. The FCPA covers bribery by any company subject to US regulation, anywhere in the world. The False Claims Act covers fraud against any US government programme.

We assess your information against every applicable US programme and route it to the right advocate for the strongest possible claim. You don't need to know which law applies. That's our job.

You've read this far.

That probably means you already know something.

Common questions people search for

How do I report my company for tax fraud? — If your employer is evading tax on income connected to the United States, you can file a whistleblower claim with the IRS under Section 7623. Quieter Signal helps you do this anonymously and safely, from any country.

Can I report tax fraud anonymously? — Yes. Quieter Signal provides a fully anonymous intake process — no name, no email, no registration. The IRS is legally prohibited under IRC §6103 from disclosing that a whistleblower exists. Your employer sees an audit, not a report.

What is a transfer pricing whistleblower? — Transfer pricing is how multinational companies set prices for transactions between their own subsidiaries. When these prices are set artificially to shift profits to low-tax jurisdictions, it constitutes tax fraud. An employee who reports this to the IRS is a transfer pricing whistleblower.

How much do IRS whistleblowers receive? — Under 26 USC §7623(b), the IRS is required to pay between 15% and 30% of all tax, penalties, and interest recovered when the amount exceeds $2 million. Through Quieter Signal, you keep 57% of the award after advocate and platform fees.

Do I have to be American to report tax fraud to the IRS? — No. The IRS, SEC, CFTC, and DOJ all accept claims from non-US citizens. The target company must have US tax obligations — which includes any company that earns revenue in the US, is listed on a US exchange, or has American operations.

What is IRS Form 211? — Form 211 is the Application for Award for Original Information, filed with the IRS Whistleblower Office. It is the formal mechanism for submitting a whistleblower claim. Quieter Signal's specialist advocate prepares and files this on your behalf.

Can I get fired for reporting my company to the IRS? — The Taxpayer First Act of 2019 makes it illegal for your employer to retaliate against you for reporting tax noncompliance. You are protected against discharge, demotion, suspension, threats, and discrimination, with a private right of action in federal court.

What does Quieter Signal charge? — 10% of the whistleblower award. Nothing upfront. Nothing if there is no recovery. Your advocate receives a standard 33% contingency fee. You keep 57%. Our 10% covers anonymous intake, case preparation, and advocate coordination.

Which countries have whistleblower reward programmes? — The United States has the most comprehensive mandatory programmes (IRS, SEC, CFTC, DOJ, False Claims Act). South Korea offers 5–20% awards for tax fraud. Canada's Offshore Tax Informant Program pays 5–15%. The UK launched a new HMRC reward scheme in November 2025 offering 15–30%, though awards are discretionary and anonymous reporters are excluded — read our assessment. The EU Directive provides protection but no financial awards.

What is the SEC whistleblower programme? — Under the Dodd-Frank Act, the SEC pays 10–30% of sanctions collected when a whistleblower's information leads to enforcement action exceeding $1 million. The largest SEC award to date was nearly $279 million. Non-US citizens are fully eligible.

What is the FCPA? — The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act prohibits companies subject to US regulation from bribing foreign government officials. Whistleblowers who report FCPA violations can receive 10–30% of sanctions under the SEC programme. Since 2011, whistleblowers from over 113 countries have filed FCPA-related claims.

Does my information qualify for a whistleblower award? — If you've seen intercompany invoices that don't match real services, licensing payments to shell entities, loans at artificial rates, or revenue booked in the wrong country, your information likely qualifies. You don't need to understand tax law — you need to have seen transactions that don't look right. Read more about whether your information qualifies.
