I haven't asked anything for a long time, but today I got a visit from the tax office & the public prosecutor or police. The reason is suspected of money laundering.
I don't know why so many people are eye-catching, but somebody thought they would report it.
It is specifically about the fact that I can't prove my economic circumstances and still live "prosperously" at 19 alone.
They also explain that I have a conspicuous behavior because I don't have a bank account, no credit card, no contracts unless they are necessary, e.g. No cell phone contract, so no cell phone number… And still go to school and still have objects in four-digit numbers.
I told him that I buy everything with BTC and that they will be donated to me via a separate page with one BTC address per donation.
When they asked me to show you that, I refused and the police said they would collect my laptop.
I fully encrypted it and set hardware and software security measures against unauthorized access.
BTC are as long as I do not convert them into EUR nor an non-material asset so they are not subject to tax and if I buy items in BTC is that also true?
Can you get into my laptop?
What can I do now?
Of course they come into your laptop. And then they will determine whether your story is true or not…
What if they weren't and you can't crack the passwords? Do I have to give it then or the USB sticks you need for the sarten
? XD
You can…
Can you get into my laptop?
No idea. You didn't even mention how or with what you encrypted.
What can I do now?
Take a lawyer. We're not legal advice.
Yes thank you
You believe in all seriousness, amateurs are in the police?
Keep on dreaming!
the police can call up capacities, you can only dream of…
Ok but if I had to give the PW
No, you don't have to. The police can do this without your help.
Again for you Oberschlau:
they don't need your password!
the police can do this without the password
That was not the question but ok
I do not know whether the pure income or donation is taxable.
But selling the bitcoins is definitely if you fall short of the holding period of 1 year you only have a free allowance of 600 euro.
Since you probably live on your bitcoins, at least the speculation tax is payable. https://www.spiegel.de/wirtschaft/service/samstagsfrage-muss-ich-bitcoin-gewinne-versteuern-a-1187365.html
So go to a tax advisor.
Thanks for the answer that with the speculation tax I did not know thanks.
Funny:
Can you get into my laptop?
Question from DIR!
It was about the next question if I have to give my password if they want
No. You don't have to help them find evidence against you.
Then you will never see the PC or the hard drive again and it will take longer!
I was also surprised.
It was once a case where everything was taken away by a security expert because of an urgent matter.
They analyzed the hard drive closely and named and documented important sectors.
(Its encryption was good enough, so nobody really came in there)
In the end it turned out to be a mistake and he got everything back.
That with the tax advisor is a little late, if the tax investigation was already there…
Your presentation is confused because you start with the accusations instead of the facts. If the police and public prosecutor's office show up and confiscate your laptop, there's a specific allegation.
Next time I would answer systematically according to the following pattern.
What are you doing in general?
You are a student, you have no income but assets without having inherited anything.
You did something, attracted attention and answered questions unsatisfactorily.
This was then threatened with tougher consequences and you again did not respond or reacted inadequately.
How should we advise you if you only offer general cookies?
You will hardly get around a lawyer, no matter what we tell you.
