With the deadline to file taxes just around the corner, the state of California decided to shame some taxpayers who haven't paid up— to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars.

Twice a year, in April and October, the state Franchise Tax Board publishes a list of the top tax dodgers in the state. Something, they say, they are legally obligated to do.

In its list of the "Top 500 Delinquent Taxpayers," the FTB includes individuals as well as businesses that have not paid their taxes. Collectively these entities owe the state $266 million in income taxes.

Topping of the list of individuals overall? Sherman Mazur of Beverly Hills. He owes the state a whopping 12,414,480.19. A lien has been placed on him since 2013, according to the FTB.

As for individual offenders in San Francisco and San Mateo counties? Here's who the FTB lists:

• Keli Yu of Burlingame owes $245,794.18
• Victor Nottoli of Hillsborough owes $233,675.01
• Josefina Manalo of South San Francisco owes $277,607.46
• David F Stewart of South San Francisco owes $223,840.44
• Gene K Ouye of San Mateo owes $258,220.50
• Victor H Wong of San Francisco owes $933,213.43
• Koroush Mehryar of San Francisco owes $311,301.19
• James D Simpson of San Francisco owes $271,208.32
• Gerald N Maddalozzo of San Francisco owes $401,742.45
• Ramiro Cardenas of San Francisco owes $375,101.73
