Subject: IRS Penalty
Good morning,
We would like to inform you, that you were imposed a penalty for the failure to file income tax returns before January 31, 2012.
Please note, that IRS [Section 6038(b)(1)] determines a pecuniary penalty to the amount of $10,000 for each [Form 5471] that is submitted on the expiry of the deadline stipulated for filing the income tax return, or does not contain the complete and accurate data defined in [Section 6038(a)].
No penalty will be due provided that the taxpayer proves that the failure to meet the deadline for filing was due to reasonable cause.
Please use the link below to enter our official site and obtain more information.

Kind regards,
