You're still wrong. If the donor doesn't pay the taxes, then the IRS will be coming after the donee.
How would the IRS ever know about the gift? Serious question.

Anything above $14K and the donee is required to file a gift tax return.
If not, the IRS can find it on an audit of the estate tax return. If the donor isn't worth more than $5.45 million ($10.9 for couples), then they probably will not file an estate tax return and the IRS will never know.
