Audits. Or simply, as someone else suggested, when trying to catch you
for something else. The tax return form asks if you have any such items
and to pay use tax on them. You then sign the statement on the bottom.
If they put that statement together with proof of unreported/paid out of
state purchases - Gotcha!
The practical situation for most of us ordinary, minor tax grifters is
that it's no problem, but the threat is there.
