Tax fraud is only one of the crimes the are committing if they are not paying you a fair wage, recording it properply, and paying into workers comp and other services and taxes they are required to pay for all employees.
It will be hellish for you if you try to behave legally when you go to file your own taxes. You'll owe the goverment more than you fairly should, because your employeer has been lying, or simply not reporting, what they are paying you.
