Quite a few years ago, I received a letter from the IRS, regarding a small business I had closed a couple of years before. The letter alleged that I had failed to pay payroll taxes for the now-closed business. With penalties and interest, the letter said, I now owed several hundred thousand dollars, and that the IRS was liening my house and property. Former employees also received similar letters, requesting their shares of the taxes (those were fun conversations).
Fortunately, I still had copies of everything, and was able to prove that I had paid the taxes and filed the paperwork.
Would you believe that the IRS did the exact same thing to me the following year?
And the year after that?
