Exposing BILLIONS in Fraud: How Texas Oil Companies Are Stealing from the State of Texas
Texas oil companies are not paying their fair share of taxes and are underpaying mineral owners by BILLIONS. Think it’s an exaggeration? You can verify it yourself.
Submit an open records request to the Texas Comptroller (who collects taxes from oil companies) and the Texas Railroad Commission (which handles production reporting). Ask for the raw production database files and the raw production reporting for taxation files. When you compare the two, you’ll uncover a staggering level of organized fraud.
What’s worse is that both the Texas Comptroller and the Railroad Commission are fully aware of this and choose to look the other way.
This needs to be exposed. Spread the word and demand accountability. I’m sharing this anonymously because I don’t want to end up in a bad situation, but it’s time for Texas to stop letting oil companies steal from the state and its people.
