On May 11 sent IRS a signed letter with my name and address.
My letter gave them the taxpayers name and SSN, included
the form numbers and dates of eariler corrispondence from
them. I stated that "I do not know (taxpayer name) and am
not his represnetative.... I am not, nor have ever been, a
representative of (taxpayer). Please correct your records
and communicate with him directly."

Received a notice from IRS today, Employee V. Dailey checked
box 12, "A revocation of the authorization by the
representative must include. 1) A clear identifiaction of
taxpayer, 2) A clear identification of the thrid party, 3)
Specific tax matters e.g. tye of tax and period(s) and 4)
Your dated signature. ..."

JEESH!!! What haven't I said?????

If you had just told us about the letter before getting the
IRS reply, my prediction would have been just the way they
handled it.

I think you have done all you need to do. Just forget about
it. No need to waste another 39 cent stamp.
