The funniest thing about the notice said they would take cash payments....


Is there any chance that this is a really sophisticated scammer here? Just a thought. I mean, it's totally believable that a scammer would try this. It's also totally believable that LDR is stupid enough to try something like this.

quote:

I'm going to tell them to either show us an agreement between the festival and LDR that requires vendor payment on Sunday or a law that says I have to make payment before the festival is over otherwise you will get my sales tax on the normal deadline to file a sales tax return.


I wouldn't even go that far. what are they going to do, put y'all in jail? I would tell them quite simply that after the festival is over, we will reconcile our taxable sales and if a payment is required we will forward said payment with a sales tax return by the deadline.

Exactly what I just told her. Thanks for the recommendations.

I thought it could be a scam too but the guy had a badge and it was on LDR letterhead. Plus the fact that they are out in public collecting sales tax makes me think its legit. My mind was blown after reading the letter. Some people have already put the letter on social media if you want to look at it.
