Ahem.
Dear Barnes and Noble:
I am yesterday in receipt of your threatening letter, sent to an address on which the forwarding order has long expired, commanding me to file a W9 before January 22 or face fines and reprisals from the IRS.
No, I am not faxing my social security number to a machine that, for all I know and suspect, dials into the mail room at B&N corporate.
You acquired Fictionwise in March 2009, and could have contacted me any time during the intervening nine months in order to acquire an updated W9; you had a working email address; a telephone number; and a PayPal account direction.
This "emergency" is not of my making; it is of yours, and I will be pleased to explain that to the IRS.
Sincerely,
Sharon Lee
