IRS inquiry: Do incorrect 1099s need rebuttal?

[allodial]

I notice the Form itself tells you the IRS has no procedure for recipient to correct an incorrect 1099

If you believe the issuer of the form is committing fraud there are forms for things like that too. If A claims to have paid B $10,000 when A only paid $1,500, B can demand the correction and cc the local IRS office on the communications. If A fails to correct, B can file an appropriate claim form.

The IRS Form 3949-A "Information Referral" seems to be appropriate to the above topic.
