Website Creates Phony Business (and Tax) Receipts

Midtown Manhattan steakhouse Maloney & Porcelli provides a dubious Expense-a-Steak web tool.  As the Wall Street Journal explains:

The premise is simple: enter the amount of your restaurant bill, click “EXPENSE IT!”, and the program automatically generates a print-ready page of fake receipts for work-related expenses like office supplies and cab fare totaling the same amount — so power-lunchers can enjoy their steak frites without drawing the boss’s ire.
