$300 penalty for private use mail

[beccalou502]

How do I do the $300 penalty for private use form I got ? I was told to use a 1040v and make that into a money order to collect the $300. Do I put that on a 1099 or do I send that im separated? And no , I am not penalized. It’s a offering from the IRS.

I don’t know what you are talking about.   Did you get a letter from the IRS to pay something?  The IRS only sends letters, they don’t call or email you.  I would call the IRS and see what they want or it could be a scam.

It is a scam.

PLEASE DO NOT RESPOND TO THE OFFER and please report it to the IRS:

You take the 300 penalty for a private use mail envelopes, And you write On the envelope that you accept the peace offer Which it is and you take a form from the PS 8096 and you fill it out you go to your post office with it And they will stay in time stamp and then mail it back to IRS to receive the credits. If you have black writing, then it’s $300 if it’s written and red it’s $600 any envelopes that come with a four minute like when I order my tax form from the IRS sometimes I get it on the envelope and sometimes it comes on a itemized sheet With the forms and publications that I’ve ordered on there and it’ll say penalty for private use on that sheet as well collect them all save them all and do as I tell you to do because it’s true and if you don’t believe me, that’s fine I don’t expect you to, but before you can call somebody a liar or accuse him I’m not telling the truth you got a first at least try out the method to debunk it.
