Only that doing such things can result in additional penalties.

For the record, mundanely I am a tax auditor, although not for the IRS.  I get
plenty of hassle and chaos in my job as it is.  I realize you were attempting
to be humorous, but do you really think the taxing agencies' employees are all
out to get you and make your life more difficult?  We are just doing our jobs,
the same as everyone else out there, and have to fill out the same forms & pay
the same taxes.  We also have no control over the laws, which are made by
legislature, not agency policy, that require you to pay taxes.

  I freely admit that my job is only to support my social life & keep me
occupied between weekends, but that is another story.  ;)

Ok, off my soapbox....
