      I agree: Form instructions:

      Form 1099-MISC incorrect? If this form is incorrect or has been issued in error,
      contact the payer. If you cannot get this form corrected, attach an explanation to your
      tax return and report your income correctly.

        I agree with Burke on this one!!
