How smart is our IRS in sending 11,000 fraudulent refund checks to a single individual???

This is what nobody is able to explain to me. Surely, with everything computerized, shouldn’t duplicate ss numbers make someone say, “Hmmmmmmmm”???????
This scheme was based on identity theft, so the perp was using multiple SS numbers. But still he could never use 11,000 mailing addresses.
In any case the length of prison sentence seems awfully short in view of the enormity of crime.
I would wonder if, about the time of the arrest, someone in the IRS went on a long vacation to a country without an extradition treaty with the U.S.
