Wife was tricked into withdrawing 30k from IRA. then returned the 30k, then withdrew 35k with a 1099 showing 65k. The money went to a con man in another country so why are we being double penalized? How do we even enter this in our taxes so we are only taxed/penalized for the actual 35k that was withdrawn and not penalized for the 30k "contribution" when it was temporarily put back?
