About 20 years ago I got two letters spaced about six months apart to which the IRS attached a document they wanted me to sign that imputed a certain level of taxable income.
I ignored the first. When I got the second, I called the IRS and talked what seemed to be a young man. Asked him to provide me with the actual statute that required me in my circumstances to pay income taxes.
I also asked him if ever heard the name Joe Bannister? Told him to do a YouTube search for him and listen to a few of his speeches. That’s the last I’ve heard from the IRS.
The best advice when the IRS wants to interview you is to assert your 5th Amendment right against self incrimination and then STFU. Unless there is huge money involved, you won’t be worth their time and effort. To many suckers out there where they can get easier results.
If the FBI ever wa to to speak with you, have them meet at your attorney’s office.once the introductions are made, pull out a recording device and turn it on. The FBI will tell they don’t allow interviews to be recorded. Your attorney will tell them that the interview will be recorded or there will be no interview. At that point, the FBI agents will get up and leave,never to be heard from again
“The best advice when the IRS wants to interview you is to assert your 5th Amendment right against self incrimination and then STFU.”
Yes..you are correct.
But, like you said, they go after those who are scared to death of them and are willing to do anything to get off the hook.
NEVER..EVER show them fear!
