The Internal Revenue Service doled out more than $27 million in fraudulent claims for the home buyers’ tax credit, including claims by prisoners serving life sentences and people who purchased their home before the credit was in effect, a Treasury Department report said Wednesday.

The IRS paid out $9.1 million to 1,295 people who were in jail at the time they said they bought a home, and 241 of those prisoners were serving life sentences, according to the report from the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration, which monitors the Internal Revenue Service. On average, that’s slightly more than $7,000 per prisoner.
