Can Anyone Explain This?

Can you explain to me what this link says about restitution and when it is obligatory to pay back what you stole. Like me, for instance I agreed for others to lie in their taxes and I got money from it, but since no one got hurt or anything am i bound to make restitution? I think that is what paragraph 3 says in this link. I am not too sure. And what if you defrauded creditors?

I do not think it needs explaining. You ought to give back, if at all possible, what you stole. In this case, since you cannot, I would give money to the poor via something like a soup kitchen, battered women's shelter, your parish, etc.

(There is no need to report yourself to the IRS.)
