“Lyndon McLellan has spent more than a decade running L&M Convenience Mart, a gas station, restaurant, and convenience store in rural Fairmont, North Carolina. The New York Times reported that a year ago, without any warning, agents from the IRS seized his entire bank account, totaling more than $107,000. McLellan is trying to recover his money. He has not been charged with a crime. ‘It was like I was just slapped in the face with something. I didn’t know what was going on,’ McLellan said, according to the paper. ‘You work for something for 13, 14 years, and they take it in 13, 14 minutes.'”
