They should be sending you a letter explaining it.  Could be many reasons. Was it the same amount as a tax due you paid or can you find that amount on your  tax return?  Check all the amounts on the return.  Maybe you entered a decimal point in the wrong spot.  

 

Did you have a tax due or refund on  your original return?    If you had a tax due you might have paid it twice, check your bank statement.  How did you pay it?  I've seen a couple posts saying they paid a tax due by check then it was also auto debited from their account.  

 

Or  you forgot to enter a payment like an estimated payment or withholding?
