Tell us has your experience with this business or person been good? What's this?

I received a phone call in August 2013 who left a message to report that he was from the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue.  I called the number and asked questions such as did I have a business in 2004? He claimed that I had owed on state taxes.  I told him that I do not recall owing any money and that I would contact a lawyer.

I disconnected that landline phone service and used my cell phone as a means of communicating with me.  Some how I was reached on my cell phone this time an Attorney office representing the Dept of PA and again requested money of $4k.  I told him that I would not provide any information on the phone with him.  I also was confused because I never received anything in the mail especially since I had filed my state taxes each year.  I provided my address for written correspondence.  

Another month goes by and another phone call by this time it's a woman who request money again.  Her response was that you are always obligated to pay your taxes and there is no time limit to retreive pass due taxes.  I told her that I will not do any business until I receive something in writing and that I had given an address but you had failed to provide the requested information.  (They still had me living at Galeton, PA).

I did receive the correspondence within a few days demanding full payment of $5,571.39.  Then the phone calls began.  She kept leaving messages to call.  One time I did answer the phone and I told her that I didn't understand how 10 years later this is happening.  You are never exempt from taxes.  We are to collect the back taxes from 2004 and 2005.  I told her that I recall paying everything off after the bankruptcy.  She asked me if I had proof.  Who would have thought that 10 years later I would need to keep my documentation.  I had moved several times and do not have the documents any longer nor can I retrieve any computerized documentation because that was software and operating system based on 2000.  

I have since located an investigator and income tax account and found that this a frauladent letter trying to revive an old debt.

What is so frustrating is that I had called the Department of Revenue and could not find an answer or receive guidance to how the PA IRS notify you that you are in arrears for taxes or someone to discuss the situation.
