<prompt> Human: I am currently a graduate student with no income, paying for school with federal loans. A family member wants me to do them a financial favor by transferring me stock, then wants me to sell it for them and send them the money to take advantage of my tax deduction. The increase in value of stock is less than 10k from the day my family member purchased the stock to today.I am a little concerned because I have read in the past that the IRS tracks transfers over 10k, and Im afraid from a legal standpoint that they will follow up on my transfer to him, after selling the stock and then trace the money back to my family members stock. I dont mind doing them a favor since they have done me many favors in the past, but I am worried about getting into a legal mix-up. Also, I am worried that this may or may not impact my financial aid for next year. Is this safe to do? What do you think?EDIT: Thanks everyone! Im going to call it off this weekend.  <response>: So...tax fraud?
