On behalf of the United States Customs Service, I wish to thank you for this tip re: the failure of Mr. S. Claus to properly declare gifts imported from abroad and to pay appropriate import tariffs in violation of Title 19, Section 1497, United States Code.

Please be advised that Customs has a continuing investigation into the usage of unregistered conveyances to cross our border. We also have collateral investigations in conjunction with the FAA into flights into restricted air space, though the sleigh in question has not been sighted near 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW, Washington, D.C. 20229 for several years.

Mr. S. Claus has been known to utilize a number of aliases and alleged nationalities. He has attempted to travel internationally as K. Kringle, P. Noel, and other assumed identities.

Most recently the FBI has begun an investigation into his usage of the internet to clandestinely communicate with underage children without the expressed permission of their parents, who have filed numerous complaints of his unsolicited spams which offer something for nothing, which every adult knows to be a fantasy in this life.

Finally, the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service has charged that he has removed every single flying reindeer, an endangered species, from their natural habitat and hitched them to an overly-burdened sleigh and forced them to fly under adverse weather conditions. This will not be tolerated for another Christmas.

As for Mr. E. Scrooge, he has had the dickens scared out of him by an apparition and has gone into deep cover. He never had a ghost of a chance of successfully cheating his government of their due either.

So, your federal government wishes to express its gratitude. You have reflected great credit upon yourself, your partner, your agency, and your home state which often rivals the North Pole as a winter solace for refugees from the tropical wastelands.

Paternalistically,

Your Country
