There's too much unsupported conjecture in your post to formulate an informed response.
You guess it was for the tax credit. Not necessarily. They may have just wanted to operate on the streets at higher speed.
Some stopped buying license tags? If they did not go through the procedure to revoke their LSV status they
could be charged with operating an unregistered vehicle
if they operate it on the streets.
Tax fraud? Assuming that someone did make their purchase for the tax credit, what were the listed obligations to receive the credit. Were they obligated to operate the LSV for a certain period of time?
John Stossel of Fox News bought one to demonstrate that the tax credit entirely paid for the LSV, so he effectively got it for free. After demonstrating it on his news show he donated it to charity. By the time the program was on the air, the government had ended the tax credit.
As I said, what were the obligations for someone who bought a cart to be street legal? Do that research and you may have an answer to your questions.
