Before I share my experience with Mohamed Jesow and his company I’d like to let you know a little about me. I’m a busy entrepreneur with two kids and an in home wife. Since my wife doesn’t work, I’m the sole earner in my family. After my work all my time is allotted for my kids. Thus I had to go to an accountant who can get my tax works done. More importantly, my business is a growing one so there are a lot of tricky transactions that are to be done and recorded properly. This is the other reason I needed an efficient accountant with enough experience. As per as thinking I Googled for an accountant near home and found the Jesow Accounting, which is run by Mohamed Jesow, who claimed to have several years of experience in doing tax work for clients in Canada. However, all this information is nothing near to the reality. But when I’ve had this understanding it was too late to reverse what happened. 

You know Canada Revenue Agency is strict in the case of income tax information submission. A slight information gap could cost you loss of the validity of yearly income tax report. In addition the paperwork is to be done following regulation and with accordance to CRA rules. Mohamed gave me his word that all my tax work would be done in the shortest time possible with proper care. So I don’t need to be tensed as the work is now upon him. I believed him and approached to pay. Nowadays almost all of my transactions are done using a credit card. I was surprised to hear that he does only accept hard CASH! I should have sensed why he only demands cash rather than credit card but I couldn’t. Anyway, I went forward and the payment had been made. 

Though I was told that the tax work would be done in the soonest time possible, it took a while. Nonetheless I didn’t mind since it’s alright as I was able to file my tax report by the deadline. Mohamed was paid rest of the fee according to our contract. This time too he took cash only. Few days later of submission a CRA official called me and informed me that some information in my documents is ambiguous and some documents appeared to be faked. My tax report is invalid—this was the summary of our half an hour conversation. If the documents are prepared again with valid information following CRA regulation I would get the pass. I had supplied all the needed information and documents to my accountant, Mohamed Jesow, so it was apparently his work that led me to this situation. And whoever does your income tax CRA directly contacts the tax payer.   

The next thing I did was I went to Jesow Accounting office and asked for an explanation from the owner, Mohamed Jesow. He was informed about all the faulty works done. He had it coming when I asked him to redo the whole work. But surprisingly Mohamed Jesow demanded to be repaid. This can’t be fair at all since he was fully paid for the same work, and though it wasn’t accepted by the CRA he’s asking for new payment. This is unethical and scam. As I kept mentioning these facts he became rude to me. He was talking to me like he was threatening me. I left this dishonest person’s office thereafter. 

This is a complete scam and can’t be compensated by any mean. Finally I had to get my tax work redone by another accountant. That means I had to pay more than once for the same work. Mohamed Jesow and his firm are responsible for this. Stay away from this crook if you don’t want to lose your money.
