Import Tax Question

[Submarinerblue]

I received a model kit from Europe by FedEx over a month ago. I was not charged any import tax at the time
Today I got an email from Fed Ex asking me to pay a $37 import tax for that package. At first I thought it could be spam or fishing, but when I clicked on it it showed the name of the authentic sender and a picture of the delivered package on my front stoop.
So, I have three questions:
Weren't Trumps tariffs overturned?
Why are they charging me a month after delivery?
What happens if I don't pay it? Are they going to report me to the IRS or just keep dunning me for the $37?

Well, I guess I better "pay the two dollars!"

I had the same experience with a package which I ordered from Greece and a couple months later received the notice from FedEx. I too was concerned that it was some type of spam however after checking with FedEx directly I sent payment. This day age it's always wise to verify before sending money.

i also had to pay about $70. hopefully it will eventually be refunded

FedEx may get their money refunded but we won't.
