Tax evaders use the Isle of Man? Surely not?

UTV News - Co Tyrone tax scam couple face jail.

It's reported:

A Co Tyrone husband and wife who operated Northern Ireland's largest ever tax scam have been warned not to be "under any illusion" that they would not be jailed.

The warning came from Belfast Crown Court judge Mr Justice Hart on Friday after hearing that Gerry and Mary Small has cost the Tax and VAT man over £4.5m over a 17 year period.

The court was told that the couple siphoned off cash and cheques from their Grey Stone Builders supply business and salted the money away in undeclared off-shore bank accounts both in the Isle of Man and here.

Impossible, surely, for tax evaded funds to go to the Isle of Man? It's too well regulated, I thought? Surely there's some mistake in the reporting?
