Weird Letter from IRS

[MarkS]

Just got a weird letter from the Internal Revenue Service. They want me to respond in the next week to either confirm or deny.

'Paypal records indicate that on 05/31/2008 you purchased four Albino Horned frogs from (name withheld). Please indicate if this is accurate."

I did purchase the frogs, but the transaction was less then a hundred bucks. Why would the IRS be interested in something like this?

They may be auditing paypal and need to verify so transactions..

They may be auditing the person you bought them from as well.

Maybe Sam is looking to buy your frogs!!

My guess is that they are looking at the seller, not you.

I would guess that as well, but I thought it was just weird to get an official letter from the IRS over such a small amount.





BTW: Unfortunatly the frogs are no longer amongst the living.
