FAR more important than having an emotional meltdown over interpreting someone's motives (as some would suggest doing), is recognizing when someone doesn't know jack about investing or taxes, but tries to play it off to "protect" his/her hopeless investment.

The answer to your question is yes: a client can be liable for the stupidity of a staffing company with regard to not paying employment taxes.

Your company could be liable if a staffing agency is supposed to pay employment taxes to the IRS but doesn’t. Your potential liability depends on the taxes involved and your contract with the staffing company.
