I have been buying cigarettes online, Am I going to be responsible down the road for taxes?

Question by pumpkin: I have been buying cigarettes online, Am I going to be responsible down the road for taxes?

On another message board, some woman posted that she received a billed from the State of Indiana for over $ 2000 for the taxes on cigarettes that she bought online.
