My advice is to contact a tax attorney. I would hate for anyone on the boards to give you wrong info, no matter how well intentioned it may be.

What does BBB have to do with your taxes?
Ari is right, tax attorney or your accountant should answer you question.

"Also this note came on a 2 by 5 card"

Umm, Is there a phone number on there?
Either call them and say whats up. DO NOT GIVE THEM ANY PERSONAL INFO. Or call you're accountant.

If its the first letter, then you can also wait for a 2nd notice.

If it is real they will send another out.

Could be another scheme to get into someones bank account. Take the appropiate steps and we are not the step here.

Sounds like a scam to me. They want to charge you to refile or something. The IRS doesn't send threatening letters on 3X5 cards. It would have a letter head. IMO Also it sound like they are refering to Real Estate tax. Again IMO. Wouldn't hurt to talk to someone who knows the law in your state area or whatever.

just 'nother joker wants to do yer taxes is all

Yeap, trust me, IRS will send you a formal letter on a letterhead. Even if you egnore it, they will send it again saying they will cease property, put liens, garnish wages, ect. ect. until you contact them.

That's why I had to sell QBID. Had 4 million shares but I had to just take care of the situation before it got worse.

TIP: Anyone who owes taxes to the IRS, did you know that you can request to pay them back in monthly payments? Yeap. Interest might hurt you but if you dont have the lump sum, thats what they do for you.

'your 2004 tax assessment' sounds like real estate taxes. I take it you are a home owner? Perhaps they have a lobbying wing that has uncovered some fraudulent tax collection activity in your county?

or maybe it's a scam, or both.

It would also ba a good idea to call the county assessers office first thing Monday morn and ask them about it.

The BBB has nothing to do with Taxes. I would go to the local IRS office and bring in the card with you. Better yet go by the local BBB office, I am sure they would like to know that someone is using there name. This sounds fishy. Again, I worked closely with the BBB as a GM of a hotel. They have nothing to do with taxes.

Iits probably a scam, call the bet. bus. bur. and check to see if and why its sent to you.

probably some group trying to lower realestate taxes and looking to get you to call...

well Keith, anyone trying to lower real estate taxes is ok in my book.

It is your chance to go in front of a judge and have your real estate taxes lowered if you think they are too high. Most of my neighbors have done it and had their taxes lowered by $600-$1500 per year. None of them used a lawyer though. I'm in Jersey, $275,000 house costs me $6000 per year in taxes. I'm appealing this year to see if I can get mine lowered.
