This one came in to sell. I offered to buy and asked for identification. There was a refusal and a denial, so I said ; "Look, I need something. Did you bring any DNA ? ". I realized it was an apparition when she shouted : "NO" and left.

good job asking.
i was with a friend when a sheriff called to ask about some coins bought/sold to an antique shop we frequently visit as some of the coins sold were from a robbery/murder and wanted to know if we purchased any of the coins brought in to that shop. thankfully we didn't get any of them but it shows how thorough they are. there were many communications from the sheriff to my friend. I had purchased coins with his EIN at that time until i filed for my own nearly a year and a half ago so they didn't even now i could have purchased a few of that group, but thankfully i didn't. so that shows you never know when an investigation will be initiated long after a sale/purchase is made. the person that was robbed had a complete listing that was supplied to family members as he was up in the years. a helper he had hired to do some odd jobs found out about his collection and the rest is history.
so if any of you buy/sell something, be very confident you keep good records and always get identification. especially as the months/years fly by it is easy to forget what we have bought/sold.
