<prompt> Human: I met someone online regarding helping them sell their items under my ebay and Paypal account. We her and her husband all became close internet friends. They were very nice and claimed to care about me, my family, etc.. I didnt use the ebay much, and they pretty much took over the account, which I agreed, they could use it as long as they paid the ebay fees etc.. I sold maybe 4 things, for a total of about 100 Last year PP emailed me a form to be used for taxes for 2011. I forwarded it to them thinking since they were making the money they would take from there. So, they told me not to worry because they hadnt grossed 25,000 that year and not to worry. So, I didnt. Now Im getting Letters from the IRS saying I owe them like 9,000 for gross income of 33,000 for 2011 that wasnt filed, plus all of these penalites for not filing. Ive been trying to contact them, and they have turned off their phone, moved and wont reply to emails. I am screwed. Tax letter said to respond with tax return and payment by this Dec 13th. HELP!!!  <response>: Go seek a lawyer. Youll need professional help with this one.
